Sat AM "non-trainer" ride

Post by pace21 »

Looking to get in 3+ hours Sat AM on actual real pavement. 9am-ish start time. Not too picky on location or route. Franklin, Westboro, Berlin are all good starting spots. Pace will be "spring", i.e. not summer, but not winter pace either. Base miles are but a fond memory for the B'kill crew. If a crew forms up in Westboro maybe I'll just join up on the road (in the Upton/Northbridge area?) and we could head towards Sutton/Douglas.

pace and duration sound appealing, yes pavement, what a concept! I'm very likely and flexible as well.

I'm in, depending on weather. I heard on the radio that the snow will be heavier in the SouthEastern part of the state. Perhaps going north & west is a good idea.

I found this cool projection:

Looks like I'll ultimately get more snow, but the snow front will start north & west and move south & east. So I think I'm gonna leave from Franklin, earlier, and head east. Probably roll around 7-7:30am. Kinda sucks I know, but if I ride the trainer any more I'll slit my wrists. Lemme know.

Tough call, would prefer to let the current band pass and look for 2-3 hr window mid to late am.

Enjoy, I opted for a non-non-trainer ride but managed not to open a vein.
