The Andovers and Harold Parker - December 20, 2017

RIDE REPORT

Wednesday, 20 December 2017, The Andovers and Harold Parker
Ride Leader:  Gardner (Sandy) Gray
26 miles, 10:00 am start from Andover Park and Ride, Andover, MA
Riders (8):  Gardner, Clyde Kessel, Dan Krechmer, David Fay, Gerry Sheetoo, Ron Cater, Selig Saltzman, and Tom Allen.

Due to mild temperatures and great weather, eight hardy souls were in great spirits for this winter ride.  We started on Dascomb Road, with busy traffic for the first quarter mile.  We were then able to leave most of the traffic behind and cruise the back roads of Andover and North Andover.  After a couple of short, steep hills and a few more miles, we came to a frozen Steams Pond in Harold Parker State Forest, where the compulsory group pictures were taken.

After returning to the parking lot, a few of us got together to enjoy a hot cup of tea and a great lunch at Origin Thai Bistro.
