I'll be leading a 40-50 mile ride in Hillsborough County NH for the AMC this Sat. 6/23. We'll be leaving from Greenfield NH at 10a, and riding through several Hillsborough towns including Francestown, Deering, Henniker, Weare, and New Boston. Along the way we'll be riding on many unpaved town roads. The route includes frequent hills, including several very steep climbs and descents on dirt and gravel. While we are riding at a moderate pace, the combination of the hills, unpaved roads, and distance, promises to be challenging. Not for beginners. I recommend at least 32 mm gravel tires, and a 1/1 or lower climbing gear. For more info., go to the NH-AMC activity page here: https://activities.outdoors.org/search/index.cfm/action/details/id/106792&act=2 There is no registration fee, and the ride welcomes non-AMC members.

Hi TimmyR- I appreciate your interest. I plan to continue leading and offering regular gravel rides in our area. Hope that you can join us. Our group is small and friendly. The rides are very social -- but also very challenging.
