All riders (both Members and Guests) must REGISTER

Register here: https://www.crw.org/memberrideregistration?rid=12627&date=

If a rider has not pre-registered, that rider must do so online at the start of the ride. 

The online registration will include a liability waiver that all riders will need to review and accept. 

The online registration will also require all riders to review CRW’s Safety and COVID Guidelines and to agree to follow those guidelines on the ride.

 

Re-scheduled from Saturday to Sunday due to rain. Starting at the Northeast Regional Voc Ed School in Wakefield, we'll bike through the Breakheart Revervation, the Lynn Woods, the Spring Pond trails, and Gallows Hill to Salem. Bring a gravel bike or its functional equivalent. The roads and trails thru the reservations are not maintained to automotive standards and they're rougher than town maintained dirt roads. But they're bikeable for gravel tires. Start at 10:00 and plan to arrive in Marblehead between 12:00 and 1:00. The usual finish time is between 2:00 and 3:00. Call or text Gene at 617-610-1875 or email me at ho.eugene@verizon.net if you have any questions.
