I thought I heard that a B2B ride is planned for 2009. I would love to get a group of us HCSs to do it from Woodford north. Does anyone have information about whether the event is actually planned? Is anyone out there interested in doing it? I think it would be awesome if we could get 10 or 15 people together to do the trip; it would give us all an excuse to get together and meet one another. It would be nice to attach a real face and personality to that avatar!

[/quote My buddies and me are already planning on dooing our own the weekend of the New Hampshire snodeo next March. We figure we'll head up from woodford on wednesday morning and figure we'll get to the house in Irasburg maybe around 9 or 10. Then on Thursday we'll just sleep in then ride over to the Snodeo on Friday. Should be a hell of a weekend of riding. Depending on snow!

count me in

Let me put my body armor on before I ask this question, ready, is the ultimate point of the B2B to raise awareness or raise money? Probably both but untimely the money is most important. With gas prices so high and the impact such an event has on the trail system, wouldn't it be more beneficial to stay home one weekend and take the money that you would spend on riding in the event and donate it?

We plan on doing Border to Border up and back and head over to the snodeo in the same weekend. Good lord hope my sled holds up.

Count me in too!! This would have been the year to do it!! Who knows maybe next year will be even better!!

We have set February 2009 for the next B2B Ride, B2B IV
It is still in the planning stages, with the exact weekend in Feb still to be determined.
For those interested keep your eye on the VAST News for updates and a return of the B2B website.
Thanks again for your support!

I would be interested as well so count me in..

Count me in...

hey hemi, you think that if i attempt one more trip, that i could actually finish it for once? they said that the third time is a charm, but i found that isn't always the case.

finishing it or not, i shall make a fourth attempt.

HOW ABOUT LATE JAN OR EARLY MAR?????????? FOR THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY?????

Hey SX, The law of averages state that you will finish the Ride next year. I mean, what else could go wrong? However, given your luck on the three previous B2Bs, as you make your way down the last stretch to Pidgeon's, you will probably become the first snowmobiler to have his sled destroyed by a meteorite! LOL!! Seriously, We are glad to have you guys on board. The Cystic Fibrosis and Donna Crandall Foundations are grateful and fortunate to have dedicated riders like yourselves participate in this event. THANK YOU!

glad to hear that you are on board for the trip...again!
