The Icicle may be your first chance to stretch your legs on a long ride after the long, cold, winter. Choose either 35, 50, or 100 kilometers (22, 31, or 62 miles) covering moderately hilly terrain in the area west and north of Newark, Delaware. Snacks will be available at the start and the traditional well-stocked, indoor food stop will add to the camaraderie of the day. NOTE: You do not have to decide to do the 100 km route until after you've tested out your legs on the early portion of the combined routes. All registrants will recieve a water bottle or cue sheet clip as a souvenir of the ride. This is a great way to start the season. DATE: Saturday
March 27, 2010 WHERE: Hollingsworth Parking Lot, North College Avenue, University of Delaware, Newark, DE (see below) COST: $20 per person ($15 if received via mail by March 19). SUPPORT: Painted route, map, sag wagon, food stop, water bottle.
