Ride Description:
The Newton Donut ride-- now with a new route!
Enjoy this delightful ride with a friendly group. The new route (23 miles) spans Newton and Weston, passing by beautiful historic homes. The longer route (36 miles) adds Sudbury.
Why is it called "donut" ride? Because we have a pre-ride social gathering for anyone who wants to join at the Dunkin Donuts next door to the ride start, with a free coffee and donut on CRW's tab.
The ride is show-and-go, which means everyone goes at their own pace. You can use GPS or print a cue sheet ahead (no printed copies at the ride start).
*If this ride is canceled for weather issues it will be listed as canceled by 9p the evening before.
We look forward to seeing you on the ride!
Ride Start Location:
1. The ride start is behind the condo building at 1172 Beacon St., Newton. There is free parking but please park in the back only (not the side).
2. The pre-ride social is right next door at the Dunkin Donuts at 1148 Beacon St., Newton (it has bathrooms). It is a 1 minute walk from the ride start.
Timing:
a. The pre-ride social is from 820a to 850a at Dunkin Donuts For the free coffee and donut (or anything else, up to $5 per person), tell them to "put it on Lisa's card"-- those are the magic words (anytime up til 'last call' at 845a).
b. The ride: pre-ride overview at 850a, and then the ride will begin promptly at 9a
