West Side Road/Passaconaway Road, maybe

Thursday, May 23rd, 2013

This weather is not easy to plan a ride around. How about the iffy weather default ride, out and back on West Side Road/Passaconaway Road? There might be a chance to get in some miles, maybe 15-20 before the rain showers ?  Take a look out your window in the morning, check the radar map and decide if you want to try a ride. I will post a cancellation if it it an obvious washout, otherwise I will be there to try to get a few miles in!  Cabin Fever!!

Meet at 10:00 am, ready to ride, in the parking lot behind the Eastern Slope Inn in North Conway.


BREAKING NEWS!!!!  Just off the press from Glenn Ashworth....
I am posting this announcement from Glenn about another weekly group ride. Past the word around:

“Just for the fun of it” Tuesday morning casual rides

These rides will be shorter, flatter, easier rides for those who would like to ride just for the pleasure of getting out on the bike and riding with some other folks, checking out some scenery or just getting in an additional shorter ride during the week.

Rides will rotate weekly starting at 4 different locations: rides start at 10:00 amin May, June, September, October and November, and at 9:00 am in the hot summer months of July and August.  The rides should finish within 2 hours. The starting time and rides will be listed on the MWV Bicycling Club Schedule at:http://www.mwvbicyclingclub.org/  

There will be no weather cancellation notifications, if you want to ride in the weather that day, just show and do so, if not don’t. The first ride will be a 4^th Tuesday of the month ride, May 28^th!
