    Central Maine newbie hanger

    Hi everyone, I lurked for a bit and you all helped me get into the hammock. I'm a bike tourer and I hate sleeping on the ground. My buddy slept so great in his ENO so I jumped into the band wagon. So far so good. I need a fly and some better insulation for my Fall rides so I will search through here and maybe ask some questions.

    Just had an informal hang last weekend on my friends property. Just had a few join in but had a great time and meet some good people. I'll be back next summer and will be looking at having a couple more hangs up here. Have spent the summer in my hammock behind the RV for almost 2 months since I can't hang inside. Keep an eye on the trip planning as some may be planning a fall hang or two.

    Welcome to the forums from a fellow bike tourer in Indiana!
    I got in a fight one time with a really big guy, and he said, "I'm going to mop the floor with your face." I said, "You'll be sorry." He said, "Oh, yeah? Why?" I said, "Well, you won't be able to get into the corners very well."
