Equinox Trail I beleive it is Dave. It is a private road up to a mountain top restaurant. I was pointed there by some local car guys but have yet to actually check it out for myself. Even if it is not no limit. I figure it would be a great foliage ride if we do a ride in October sometimes.

Sure thing. But I am not going to Cambridge to pick you up. Meet you in Waltham maybe? We have some others who want to tag along as well. Hope it is good there or we may waste a lot of fuel and money.
