Trek Across Maine Training Rides

Training rides for the Trek Across Maine. These rides will prepare riders for the Trek Across Maine, a charity ride sponsored by the American Lung Association. We will start the first week with a 20-mile ride and continue to add about 5 miles in distance and mix in a few hills each week gradually working up to June 7th, the Saturday before the Trek, when we will do a 60-mile hilly ride designed to simulate one day of the Trek. The rides are intended to be educational and fun. We will tailor each ride to the needs of the group. No one gets dropped. If the weather is questionable, call to confirm that the ride is taking place. Newcomers are welcome as are non-Trekkers. The start location is the Transportation Center/Train Station at 33 Chestnut Street, Dover, NH. The Ride Leader will poll the participants the first week about the possibility of changing the start location for some of the rides. The weekly ride postings will be updated accordingly. John Straight is the primary Ride Leader (Mobile Number 603-781-7359), with GSW President Michael Claus as backup.
