An exploration of the lovely Mass Central Rail Trail in West Bolyston. They've recently added lengthy switchbacks so the climbs are no longer technical. There are 2 rides being offered- a 27 mile non-technical version, and a 29 mile technical version. The non-technical version, with one 0.75 mile exception, could likely be rode on a road bike. The technical version adds 3 miles of fire roads and mildly technical single track and is best for experienced gravel riders.
Post ride location TBD.
At start
Heavy rain or thunderstorms cancel. Notice will be posted by 7 pm, day before if canceled.
