North to Newburyport
Leader: Arnold Nadler, 978-745-9591 ardnadler@aol.com Start: Cutler Elementary School, Asbury St., South Hamilton, MA map to start
Directions: Rt. 1A to South Hamilton. Take Asbury St. .7 miles from Rt. 1A at Patton Park. The school will be on your right.
Date and Time: Sunday, October 16, 2011: 10:00 AM for 53, 37 or 28 miles
What to expect: Enjoy some of the nicest cycling in our area. Generally quiet, scenic country roads in Hamilton, Topsfield, Ipswich, Georgetown and Boxford. Long ride adds Newbury and Newburyport. Generally flat to rolling, with a few small hills.
Slight change from last year: Toward the end of the ride, Rowley Bridge Road is closed for cars but it is possible to walk through the jersey barriers. The arrowed ride has been rerouted straight on Salem and Hill Streets to the upper end of Rowley Bridge Rd., instead of right on River Rd. and left on Rowley Bridge Rd.
Ride arrow is a white letter "A".
