Hi Traveller,

Your summer plans sound awesome!! I'm hoping to do the same thing next summer, somehow most of the hillclimbs around New England aren't fitting into my schedule...I'm sure that you will do fine though!! Everyone that I have spoken with about it has mentioned that it really isn't that difficult... Regardless I applaud your efforts! What is the difference between the hillclimb and Newtons revenge?

I have done a couple of tours in NY.. the Addirondack tour and the Hudson Valley tour. There's also another tour that leaves Bethel and climbs through Coburn Gore and back through Kingfield, Rangeley, Andover and back to Bethel... that's a great tour and fair amount of climbing.(June 24-30)

I'd definitely be interested in trying to get a group together to ride if you end back in this area... just let me know! In the meantime, good luck in your training!
