Iffy Forecast for June 1st

Cancelled - The National Weather Service radar shows that the forecasted precipitation is at our door step.

Let's be optimistic, just in case we get a window of opportunity. We'll plan on riding the National Forest Trails to the west of the Cedar Creek and Birch Hill neighborhoods off West Side Road in North Conway. There are two "loops" which combine about 8 miles of mostly forest roads and about 3 miles of pavement. The total time to do both loops at a moderate pace, is a couple of hours

Most of the ride is pretty flat and suitable for all abilities. We will cross a couple of brooks, but most of us will keep our feet dry.

We'll meet at 9:30am in the parking lot just outside and to the left of the gates to Echo Lake State Park in North Conway. From there we'll ride south on West Side Road for about 3 miles and then enter The National Forest on a trail in the Cedar Creek Development. Bug spray is recommended.

Check this blog at 8am tomorrow, Tuesday, morning to confirm that the ride is still on.
