Thursday, July 23rd
It appears that the weather will be OK for a bike ride in the morning. Some rain and thunderstorms are due in the afternoon. So let's get out for a ride, close to home with escape options if the weather comes in earlier than predicted.
It the weather comes in MUCH earlier than predicted, I might have to cancel the ride, so check in with this blog site if you are seeing rain closing in on our area in the morning.
Meet at the Thorne Pond parking lot (across from the Attitash Bear Peak Parking lot) on Route 302. We will bike into Bartlett Village for a warm up, then take our time heading up Bear Notch Road on NEW PAVEMENT. Going at your own pace, nice and steady, will spread us out at the appropriate Bicycling Distancing.
Once to the top you have two options for the downhill.
1. Take the road back down and enjoy the new pavement.
2. If you bring your gravel , hybrid or All Road bike, we will descend on the dirt roads of the Experimental Forest. Perhaps you have xc skied these roads on a ThursdaySki last year .You will recognize some parts of the road systems if you xc ski at the Bear Notch Ski Touring Center.
Let's meet at 9:00 am, ready to ride. This ride is relatively short, likely no more than 18 miles, but it is a good workout!
