Ride Description
Women/trans/femme/nb only
Fall foliage frolic! Let’s hope the leaves stick around for this. This ride is for folks who want an ACTUALLY chill gravel experience, but are of an intermediate skill set.
I do my best to find unique and fun routes, but you may be walking up a hill or rolling over roots, it’s New England after all. We try to maintain a steady pace and will regroup at the top of all hills, this is a no-drop ride, but participants are expected to maintain the advertised pace. All riding etiquette, rules, questions, etc. will be covered at the start before we roll!
