CSU Ice Cream Bicycle Tour, part of the MassBike Spin Series!

Back by popular demand — the Annual CSU Ice Cream Bicycle Tour, otherwise known as the Tour des Glaces! This year part of the MassBike Spin Series.

Sunday, August 8
Departs promptly at 10:30 am
Meet at Concord (MA) Center, on the green, by the water fountain

A leisurely bike ride to THREE houses of Delectable Dairy Delights:
Bates at Kimball’s (Carlisle)
Erickson’s (Maynard)
Kimball’s (Westford)

Almost everyone can do all or some of the bike ride … The ice cream eating is by far the most strenuous activity of the trip. (START TRAINING NOW!!) Although physically challenging (the ice-cream eating), the trip for nearly 30 years has been alleged to be calorically neutral, unless you insist on jimmies and/or whipped cream.

The entire loop is about 52 miles, BUT you don’t have to do the whole route… Many proud veterans of the ride have stopped after the first or second cones (easy routes back to Concord).

Bring your friends, your families, and especially your bicycles ! Contact Gail at 617-926-5149 begin_of_the_skype_highlighting 617-926-5149 end_of_the_skype_highlighting or gbreslow@mos.org for more information, or to RSVP. Hope to see you there!

Note: Rain date will be sometime later in the summer. Call 857-204-4153 for a go/no-go decision if it’s rainy on the 8th.
