I might abandon Saturday's race plans as a 3hr drive up to Maine to race in the rain isn't very appealing. So I'd like to get a hard and hilly effort in Sunday as a sort of substitute. This ride will include a few laps on the Purgatory race course plus a run up Purgatory road, and a few other surprises thrown in. The ride will be in the 3 hr range. 9:00 a.m. roll from Roche Bros.(back parking lot) in Westboro. Any takers?

Any chance you would consider an earlier start?

I was thinking 7 but how about 8am as a compromise?

In. Good race prep. All my training recently has started at 5 so 8 will feel like luxury.

I am formally declaring this a rule #5 and rule #9 ride. If you don't know what that means, look it up. Basically, you better show up no matter what the conditions.

Here is the location to meet. You are right about your location but the key is that it is in BACK of the Roche Bros.
