Thanksgiving Day, November 22, 2017

No ride planned for Thanksgiving morning. 

The cold morning temperature and the residual salt on the pavement has convinced me that staying inside, watching the parade on TV and/or taking a walk might be a better option between the cooking duties.

I will continue to try to post bike rides for Thursdays, weather permitting, likely on bike paths or dirt roads if there is appropriate weather and no snow or ice. As an alternative, a good long walk/hike could be a good way to get out of the house while we anxiously look out the window for snow accumulation.  Check this blog if your are curious about an expedition on Thursdays.

As the snow falls, I will change ThursdayBike into ThursdaySki, so keep checking the blog if you want an xc-ski adventure on Thursdays throughout the winter and spring.

Have a fun Thanksgiving! I am thankful for such great group of biking friends!

RIde Cancelled this week

Thursday, November 16th, 2017

The forecast just does not look good for a bike ride this Thursday.

IF the weather cooperates next week, I will set up a bike ride on Thanksgiving morning, a short one in the North Conway area. It would be nice to get in a ride before the turkey dinner celebration with friends and family!

I will continue to try to post bike rides for Thursdays, weather permitting. As the snow falls, I will change ThursdayBike into ThursdaySki, so keep checking the blog if you want an xc-ski adventure on Thursdays throughout the winter and spring. Until the snow accumulates enough for xc skiing, there might be a hike posted instead.

North Fryeburg Late Fall Fields 11:30 start

November 9, 2017

A cool day but should be good for a casual ride over in North Fryeburg. The fields are likely all harvested and prepared for the winter. We could do the usual routine that includes Cornshop, Fish , Harbor then head up to the Stow Store if desired.

If you bring a "Dirt and Pavement"-capable bike, we can explore the dirt road that parallels the Old Saco River. I am not sure if the recent storm took that road away, so let's check it out and see what condition it is in.

Meet at the park next to the Saco Valley Fire Station in North Fryeburg, ready to ride at 11:30. Starting time is later than usual to let the temperature rise a bit. Bring lunch or snacks.

Rained out, again

Thursday, November 2, 2017

I am just not impressed by any of the forecasts. I think it will be either drizzle or damp with wet roads, so I guess I must cancel for this week.

Try again next week!!
