2668.0. "Fitchburg Cycle Club Century" by SUBSYS::SCHNARE (CHARLIE SCHNARE) Thu Sep 02 1993 09:43

			Fitchburg Cycle Club Century
			      September 26th


Starts at Royal Plaza Hotel just off Route 2 in Fitchburg. Its exit 28 off of
Route 2 as you head West.

Registration opens at 7am. 

Cost $10 includes complete SAG wagon support. You'll be given a number to call
at the hotel, and they will have mobile communication to the SAG wagon.
$5 for the 35mi course.

Distances 35mi, metric century, full century.

Very challanging course which is VERY HILLY. Also for extra added adventure an
option to go  up Mt.Wachusetts. This isn't a beginner's ride or course. The
course itself is VERY HILLY. My guess would be that we'd come in 6+hrs.
                              

For additional information call Darron at 508-632-7032

     I'll support Charlie's assessment. I did the course two weeks ago.
    
     You'll cook easily if you push this one (I called it severely
    rolling). I think Ken Lecomte and myself pulled something around
    a 6:20-ish (total time including stops). Saddle time was approximately
    5:40-ish. We worked at a moderate level (on average) e.g. worked hard
    here, slacked off there... We also ended up doing the last 20+ in the
    rain. I'd like to do it again - dry...
    
     Beautiful country ride - traffic should be virtually non-existent (as
    is civilization :-))... Some good roads, some bad.
    
    
     Hope to see you there!
