This favorite mid-week ride is being scheduled for 11:00 am Tuesdays during the 2025/26 winter season. The 19-mile route traverses the hills of Topsfield on quiet, pastoral roads and offers over 1200 feet of climb and descent.
The ride is a no-drop ride. It combines an optional interval workout with social interaction, as riders will regroup at the bottom of each hill before advancing along the route. You will feel great at the end of each session, and by the end of the series you will be ready for most hills waiting for you during the summer season.
Riders typically average 12-15 mph for this ride, with climbs being slower and descents faster, of course.
Rides will be canceled when the combination of temperature and wind chill is less than 25F or when road conditions are unsafe due to precipitation or freezing runoff.
