We had a fantastic Halloween gravel ride! We traversed many of Westchester’s most scenic dirt roads. The day started chilly but transformed into a gorgeous fall day as we rode. Most of our ride was on ‘normal’ dirt roads, but there was a rough section of Mountain Lakes Park that made for some extra challenge, especially with leaves covering parts of the trail. All four of the pace groups did a fantastic job and everyone finished the ride within a few minutes of each other – perfect timing for celebrating with a cold beer (or hot chocolate) and food after a challenging ride!
