This Week - Portsmouth on Wednesday and Westminster on Friday

Dear AdventuRiders,

If you believe the forecast, it should be SUNNY and near 70 degrees with low humidity when we leave for our seacoast ride from Hampton North Beach to Portsmouth (and Kittery, ME) on Wednesday. It should be near 80 and Sunny on the way back with a slight sea breeze headwind on the way back!

Don't worry about registering yet, some of the Recreation Departments haven't got their Fall schedules posted yet.

As a reminder, you MUST have an approved bicycle helmet, and you MUST pump up your tires! You will also need to initial and sign our Release and Waiver of Liability.

In addition to our normal spectacular ocean view ride, I have added a short loop to Kittery, ME to try out the new Memorial Bridge.

RSVP if you are interested in carpooling. I will send out the list to the interested parties.
