Great to see so many varied rides and locations. We are set for another stretch of warm weather so
rholland1951 , I hope you can go on that ride to Haystack!
I've been out riding but not in a mood to post lately, or even take more than a few pictures. This includes a 42 mile excursion a couple of weekends ago on those trails in NH (Salem to Londonderry), with snacks and longing looks at "my" track (Northeast Velodrome), and then home to Chelmsford via Mammoth Rd. A new personal distance record, actually. Not really Metro Boston, and at any rate a longer account than I was willing to write.
Today saw me venture south of West Concord for the first time on the BFRT. Obligatory "I was here" shot at Powder Mill Rd, and I finally remembered the mural, too.
Not pictured, a friendly jogger who saw me at that fence with my phone out and assumed I was trying to figure out if the trail continued. Likewise, I suddenly found myself in a middle school road race (walk was more like it, for the part of the field that I saw) that included much of that BFRT spur to the fence. Running both ways, with a teacher posted at the turnaround spot (yeah, they thought of that).
29.1 miles and 800 vertical feet. One of my longer rides of the year.
