Saturday Sterling, MA. Loop (again)
If anyone is interested in doing a 4.06 mile loop with me in Sterling this Saturday just pm me. The weather is projected to be in the 40's. The roads could be a little wet from melting snow, but not sure how wet. I'm looking at starting at 11 am and am up for between 4 to 8 loops.
*NOTE: I can do a Sunday ride on the loop if I get any taker's. I would be able to get there by around 1 pm. If I don't get any taker's for Sunday I will be riding up in NH. on rte. 119 instead.

I'd love to if I was up there. My parents are in Holden and last summer my wife and two sons rode from Holden to Sterling and back. By mistake I took them up Meeting House Hill Road (off of Main Street); Nice hill. We were supposed to go up Maple St. to the Orchard (another short but killer hill -- they don't make hills like that in Brooklyn!). I do some rides with my brother in the summer up there, usually Worcester to Paxton, Princeton, Hubbardston, Rutland, etc. I don't enjoy the potholes but I like the hills.

If your up in the area this summer give me a yell. I have a loop I like to do that starts in W. Boylston and goes into Worcester and climbs to the airport. The loop then climbs all three roads leading to the airport. They have a hill climb TT in the center on Worcester every year, they had around 147 people show up last year. I think it's called The Major Taylor George Street Challenge, some video's on youtube. I did it last year for the first time, and it was fun, i'll shot that climb in some of my rides this year.
