Dear AdventuRiders,
The weather forecast for tomorrow is Sunny and 50 degrees when we leave, and mostly cloudy and near 60 when we return. It should be mostly a tailwind coming back. Many of the trees are in bloom, so it should be a pretty ride.
This is one of my favorite rides. Its scenic, challenging, and has a two mile downhill run through Harvard. Of course that means that there are some uphills too, but the one category 5 (easiest category) hill we have is mostly just long and not that steep.
The route is about 27 1/2 miles long and 800 feet vertical with most of the elevation gain in the first hill, although it is uphill back to the starting point too. It is all on road and I plan to bring my road bike.
Lunch is at the Horseshoe Pub in Hudson.
On Wednesday, April 25th - Boxboro
