If I wasn't doing the MS Bike Tour and the Seacoast Century that weekend, plan B would've been to do the Golden Apple in place of one of them. Geesh! Why are there only 2 days in a weekend? Have fun!
You sure are a busy bee! I wish I could be out there filling up my weekends with these rides! Next year I am going to MAKE time. Maybe I can catch you on another ride.

Thanks for the heads-up on the Golden Apple. I have not been on this ride before, and thought I would try something in New York for once. I will be doing the 125 mile option and am looking forward to these steep hills!
