Reminder - Townsend - Greenville on Wednesday

Dear AdventuRiders,


Well, the weather forecast has changed from iffy to delightful for tomorrow. It should be upper 40s, SUNNY, and a light breeze when we leave. Its should be upper 50s, still SUNNY, still a light breeze when we return.

This ride is definitely hilly, but to put in in perspective, if you did both rides Recreation rides on Monday you rode 27 miles with 800 feet elevation gain. 

On Wednesday, October 24th -Townsend Center to Greenville
The ride will be about 25 miles and 1050 feet vertical with a category 3 hill (5 miles long, but not real steep) getting up to the plateau, but then its rolling hills and beautiful distant views, "You can see Boston from here". After lunch at Marcus P's Diner Plus, we have a cat 5 hill (easiest category). Its all on road, but there are a few gravel / dirt roads on the way. I plan to bring my road bike.

  • We should return by 2:30 PM.
