Crank Some Crawford, April 26, 2008

Hi Everyone!

The Saturday Ride this week will be up Route 302 to the top of Crawford Notch or as far up as you would like to go. Most of the route is a gradual climb -- it is only the last mile that contains the workout! Lunch and snack stop will be at the Willey House, alongside the lake.

Do "The Notch" then stop by the lunch spot, or perhaps make the Willey House your goal. For those wanting shorter options, see list below.

We will start from the parking lot at Attitash, on the north side of route 302, across the street from the lifts.

Ready to ride at 10:00 am.

Pick a distance that suits you:

From Attitash to:

Bear Notch Road: 2.6 miles
Fourth Iron parking lot: 6.4 miles
Notchland Inn: 8.6 miles
Willey House: 14.2 miles
Crawford Notch Train Depot: 17.1 miles

Your return trip home is a wonderful downhill cruise. Since the climb (well, to the Willey house...) is not a difficult one, you will be amazed at how much downhill coasting you will do to get back to Attitash. A great reward for not a lot of work on the way up.
