We had a nice, hilly ride over the seven hills of
Rome last Saturday. We did see some moments of sunshine, although none
that could be interpreted at the "Stonehenge" on Mercer Road in Rome,
but the views from Wooster Hill and Blueberry Hill were worth the
climbing. This Saturday we will meet in North Belgrade at 10:30am for a
ride around McGrath Pond with stops at sights along Great Pond
including a post-ride get-together at a cabin site on the shore of the
lake. Dress warmly, and dig out your ugliest sweater if you have one.
Hope you can join us on the last scheduled ride of the year!
Saturday, November 11 - NORTH BELGRADE
"Ugly Sweater Ride" - a questionably-stylish ride around North Belgrade and Oakland.
START:
10:30 am at the North Belgrade Community Center, 508 Smithfield Road,
Route 8. (Not to be confused with the Belgrade Community Center on Rt.
27.)
DISTANCE: 17 miles.
TERRAIN: flat to rolling; some short gravel sections to sights along Great Pond.
HIGHLIGHTS:
a possible stop at an unusual WWI memorial on Great Pond on Armistice
Day, and a post-ride get-together around a campfire at the lakeside,
with refreshments! Feel free to bring something to share if you wish, as
this may be our last gathering of the year.
LEADER: Jim Merrick, 293-3784, hjmerrick@gmail.com.
