Details
If you have been waiting for someone to post an EZ bicycling event your wait is finally over! Please join me in a leisurely 2 to 3 hour afternoon bicycle ride along the 8 mile Derry - Windham rail trail. This old Manchester NH to Lawrence MA railroad bed has been re-invented as a predominantly paved cycling / walking / running path.
We will begin our trek in the heart of downtown Derry NH easily accessed from exit 4 off I-93. We will meet at the Abbott Court municipal parking lot next door to Sabatino's Italian restaurant on East Broadway Street. Detailed directions will be sent to all registered participants just prior to the event.
The 8 mile rail trail is paved with the exception of the last mile before reaching Windham. The round trip from Derry to Windham and back will be approximately 16 miles. Actual mileage to be determined by the group. This event is geared towards the beginner to intermediate cyclist. The trek is not a race. The goal is to have some relaxing FUN!
We have the option of socializing at a local eaterie after the ride. Bring plenty of H20 and snacks. There are benches scattered along the trail for hydration breaks.
Rain cancels the event.
Directions
From I-93 take exit 4. Head towards downtown Derry. The Abbott Court municipal parking lot is immediately next door to Sabatino's Italian Restaurant. Parking is free. Look for my black Nissan Frontier pickup truck.
