Welcome to the Mount Washington Valley Velo Club site. This site is a resource for members as well as fellow cyclists who may be visiting the Mount Washington Valley. This site provides a listing of events, ride schedules, and other pertinent links. We encourage all to visit our sponsors as they make up an important element of our community.

We are a group of cyclists who enjoy staying in good health, the camaraderie of fellow cyclists, and a bit of competition among friends. We cover a variety of ages and experiences and enjoy sharing the many benefits of this sport with others.

Steve Blum's BBQ Ride Saturday, July 19

It was a good day for a ride and nearly 30 people came to participate. There were at least 5 different rides that folks chose to do: A longer, through Crawford Notch to Jefferson/Whitefield and back ~85 miles. A ride through the 4 notches in a counter-clockwise direction returning over Bear notch ~80 miles. A ride through Crawford to Trudeau road and back ~60 miles. A ride through Crawford Notch to Fabyans (Irving station) and back ~40 miles. Ride to Willey House and back ~ 26 miles. Some groups encountered rain, which in retrospect, was refreshing, but all in all, there were many smiles at the BBQ.

Thanks to everyone for participating and thanks to Steve for hosting such a fine event.

I have a few pictures and if any of you have some additional, please send @ rolanddubois@roadrunner.com

"NEW JERSEY NIGHT"

This Thursday evening, July 10, will be "New Jersey Nite" at one of our club sponsors, the Red Parka Pub.

No, this isn't a party for Garden State folks, or a bus tour of the Meadowlands looking for Jimmy Hoffa, It's that our new MWVVelo Bicycle club jerseys will be available that night. We will have them ready for you to pick up in the Red Parka's Pub, during the following hours: 4:00 pm until 6:00 pm and then again after the Parka's busy dinner hours, from 8:00pm until 10pm.

If you are able to, please get to the Parka during these times to pick up your ordered club jerseys. Please bring either a check or cash. Each jersey is $45. No jerseys will be given out without full payment. Only pre-ordered jerseys will be available.

We will set up another pickup situation for those of you who can't make it this Thursday evening, so, we'll be in touch.
