On it's way to being a classic, we're headed back up north for our annual White Mountain ride. Meet at the bike shop parking lot on Sunday morning to coordinate car pools a bit before 7:00 am and we'll be heading out at 7 SHARP. If you'd like to meet us up there, we'll be parking at the Lincoln, NH visitors center for a ride leaving there at 9:00am. This is a casual ride, climb how you climb and we'll regroup at the tops. The route will be Kanc, Bear, Crawford & Franconia. Finishing up on the bike path and back to the visitor center. Total round trip is 80 ish miles. Call the shop with questions 603-542-2453 and ask for Bob or Jason. See you Sunday! www.masonracing.com www.gtbicycles.com

Thanks for the details Jason. I'm in and I believe Dana is in as well. I suspect we will meet you up there. Is there a SAG wagon or is this an unsupported ride? Ryan

I plan to join you too. I will meet you up there. I haven't been up there yet but I assume it's the visitors center right off Exit 32 from 93 N that puts you on the Kanc? From google maps it looks like it's right off the exit. Thanks.

I believe that is the one Linc. I believe you can see the visitor's center from the end of the ramp. I want to say it is either straight ahead or just to the right of the end of the ramp. I also believe this is the route Jason refered to: [url]http://www.team-pinnacle.org/local-loops/loop.php?loopID=159®ion=15&sport=1[/url] Ryan

Dan, I had planned on driving up. Ryan is riding with me and I have room for two more people and bikes. So let's work something out dependent on how many people want to carpool with us. I'll email you. Dana

We've been having a tremendous response this year! This should prove to be another great ride for sure! This is an un-supported ride, however last year we stopped at a store before we started up Crawford and the timing was pretty spot on. Bring your normal GU / energy bar / Shot blok kinda thing and 2 water bottles and you should have plenty to get you through to the store. The temp right now (I know the 10 day forecast is not reliable, but that's what I've got right now) is looking like sunny with highs in the mid 60's (I'd say that's perfect), so dress accordingly. The visitors center is just off 93 and on the right (big building by the tracks). If you're interested in carpooling from Cycle Depot, just arrive at the shop by 6:45am sunday morning so we can get the logistics squared away and try to depart by 7. See you on Sunday! www.masonracing.com www.gtbicycles.com
