happy cinco D everyone! good time to announce our annual small spring event. for those who have not attended before:

• this is a completely unmarked and un supported hilly ~55 mile ATB ride.
• haven’t decided on where we will go this year … Weather dependent, we may head to the beach for a picnic, or head back into the wildes of Haddam Neck like last year, although this time with a water fill up! maybe.
• there will be an encouraged half way bring your own food and water for a picnic stop. all of the amenities will be marked on the ridewithgps file that will be released the Thursday before the event.
• you will want at least 45 mm tires, but wider is better in all cases.
• if its rainy or generally crappy, I will call it off by the thursday beforehand. this is a spring bike vacation after all!
• Register here at bike reg for free. its important to reg to get any of the routes and other info.
• the cost of the event is a $20 suggested donation to the East Haddam Land Trust. the donate form is at the bottom of the page. this is honor system, but please help support the open spaces and trails the EHL so graciously maintains and makes sure are here for us to ride!
• we meet at the east side ferry landing at 10:30am to greet the first ferry of local riders coming across from Chester.
• you must park up in the Gillettes Castle parking lot above the ferry landing. the gates are open until dark at around 8. I hope you are done by then!

after you reg, the forthcoming info will be sent to you via the email you reg’d with.

hope to see you in about 10 days!
