Upcoming 200k, 400k, and 100k
The Vermont Northeast Kingdom 300k from this past weekend lived up to expectations of being a great ride. It was the hardest 300k I (Jake) have ridden but also one of the most enjoyable. Congratulations to everyone who came out for the ride. Also a very special thanks to Anthony and his whole family for providing great support on the ride.
The results from that ride plus the Boston 300k and the June Sunday Series events have all been posted.
Next on the calendar is the Boston 200k / 400k. Highlights from this ride is the feast at the Hillsboro control and lots of hilly New Hampshire roads. Ride Leader (and NER President) Dan Greene has recently modified the return leg of the 400k to add a control so that riders will have another opportunity for water and snacks on their way back to Boston. For those riding the 200k there are many places to stop and refuel on this stretch.
Dan is still looking for volunteers for this event so please contact him and offer to help if possible. You can pre-ride the route for credit anytime in the next two weeks, you’ll get a free membership next year, and most importantly you’ll be helping your fellow riders.
Last but not least the July Sunday Series 100k event will be a brand new North Shore route designed and run by Dan Shinnick. The ride starts in Beverley, MA and details will be posted soon.
