Series Opener

Solo start to the series.

While things are looking a bit better than this time last year, we will continue to run the series on a solo effort basis.  This means that, for now, we will not meet on Tuesdays at 6PM – instead, we'll post the ride on Mondays and participants can do it at any point up through Sunday night. 

Here are the rules:

1)  Complete the ride at some point during the week and email us your time (mightypemi@gmail.com) by Sunday evening.

2)  We will post the results and give points.  There could be advantages depending on conditions (those headwind TTs are a blast!), so you could be strategic…  You could even do the time trials a few times and just give us your best performance.

3)  We will log your PRs, but course records are off limits until we’re back riding together.

4)  Please don’t use Strava to record your time – we didn’t create those segments and we’ve found that times from them can be unreliable. 

5)  All hillclimbs must be done in time trial format; if for some reason you’re riding with anyone else, treat hillclimbs just like the TTs.  Each rider goes off on their own at ~30 second intervals/no drafting allowed. 

*This year we are requiring a participant waiver – you can find it here – the waiver is good for the entire season.  

Information on the first ride is below.  Have fun out there!

Short Time Trial

This is an individual time trial (no drafting), and riders have from Tuesday through Sunday to complete the course and record a time.  Since Strava segments can be unreliable, please time yourself by other means.  Send times to mightypemi@gmail.com--we'll post it here and place times accordingly.  Points are given in descending order (if there are 10 riders, 1st place gets 10 points, 2nd place gets 9 points, etc.) Points go to your season tally.

Course:  This relatively flat ~9.4 mile course runs from the South Station Road/Rt 3 intersection in Woodstock down to Campton.  The start line is across from the middle of the grassy intersection triangle.  The finish line will be the big Thornton Auto Repair sign on the right (just after the bridge) as you ride south. 

Course Records:  M: Matt Kurz, 20:10, 7/9/19, W: Jen Marts, 23:33, 7/9/19, T: John Jurczysnki & Ann Benoit Jurczynski, 20:45, 7/12/16
