4th Annual Turkey Day Bike Ride

What better way to build up your appetite for Thanksgiving than a bike ride with friends. This is the fourth annual Steele's Crossing Thanksgiving Day Bike Ride which is a social biking event that travels through Manchester,Vernon Bolton, and Andover. The trail is packed dirt, suitable for hybrids and mountain bikes even though a roadbike would do. The Scenery is beautiful. The Company is priceless. We will depart at the Church Street Depot in Vernon Connecticut after some pictures and the like and will ride down to Steele's Crossing in Andover where more pictures will be taken. Then Spin it around and head back. Total Mileage is roughly 14 miles round trip and the event runs for about 2 hours and some change duration.


  People coming from Manchester will depart at Parker Road/Colonial Road Trail head on the corner of Sheldon. Next to AAAMCo Transmissions at 7:30 Parking there is limited but many businesses that surround the area with lots that will be closed. It is a good idea to get there earlier. I will be there at the spot. Help us make this tradition grow!
