Jump in on NSC's classic Thursday Wakefield Ride at an intermediate pace.  Beginning at the head of Lake Quannapowitt, we roll up through Lynnfield Center, past Pillings Pond.  Then down Lowell/Chestnut St, into North Reading Center, and loop around back to Lynnfield for a terminal velocity descent.  Finally a loop around Quannapowitt for a glorious finish and the weekend can begin. 


Please note there are two separate groups doing the same ride but at different speeds. Tom Swanson leads the intermediate paced ride.
