Ride Description:
Join us to wind along the Charles River through the towns of Needham, Dover, Medfield and Sherborn. Three routes to choose from. Mostly rolling hills in a suburban setting.
South Street in Needham does get a fair amount of traffic requiring single line riding.
This ride is show-and-go, which means everyone goes at their own pace (there is no led pace and no sweep). But when we gather in the parking area, we will form subgroups by ride length and you may choose to cluster with others as you ride. Proper navigation tools are required: GPS device or phone app. Please do not rely on others to help you with navigation as they may ride at a different speed than you.
Adverse weather may cancel or postpone the ride. Check the website 8 am on Saturday for updates.
Timing
We'll gather for a brief pre-ride talk at 9:15 am, and then leave promptly at 9:30 am.
