2011 Bon Ton Roulette

A bunch of people I was skiing with this weekend were talking about doing it in 2012.

Any particular reason in 2012 and not 2011?

They've already committed their vacation to other trips in 2011.

Thanks for posting this. I never heard of the Bon Ton Roulette before. Looks interesting.

I had been looking at this ride...

However, this one is earlier in the season and it will not be nearly as warm as the one in July and the black flies may or may not be an issue.

Hmmm... another option to consider.

I have done the Southen Teir Great Finger Lakes tour a few times and am planning to do it again this year.
The weather has not been bad in the past. I have not had any issues with black flies in the past.
The price is great for what you get. It is a fun weekend with other bicycle enthusiasts.

I have never done the Bon Ton Roulette. But I have done the Great Big Fany Ride that takes place the same week and actually does some of the same route. That was my first tour and I have been hooked on touring ever since.

Thanks for your thoughts on the Bon Ton ride, Psycler. It's nice to have more positive feedback on the area and the ride.
