Based on our Rider Survey, we will continue to offer two days of riding with our popular 25, 50, 63 and 100 mile routes with Hampton Beach State Park as our start and finish. In 2015, early check in on Friday evening and the Bike EXPO on Saturday were a hit with the riders, so we’ll offer them again in 2016. We also plan to include a bowl of soup and a roll with the cost of registration.
Our Seacoast Century route follows the New Hampshire, Massachusetts and Maine coastline with some short scenic inland loops. Cycle New England’s coast with us this fall and enjoy level to rolling terrain passing scenic small towns and beachfront communities, great ocean views with sandy beaches, headlands, rivers, wetlands, and forest. Our route includes historic Portsmouth, State Parks, the Nubble Lighthouse, harbor views and a chance to take a dip in the ocean after the ride or stop and take in a local event like the Portsmouth Maritime Festival. Options include a full, metric, half or quarter century. All rides begin and end at Hampton Beach State Park (the southern most point in the Park near the harbor). Check-in begins on Friday from 4-6PM or at 7AM each day. You’ll need to check in to pick up your number and rider information.
