THE 23rd ANNUAL ALICE'S RESTAURANT RIDE
Another Thanksgiving weekend ride that couldn't be beat! Start in Salisbury, CT for a 68 mile scenic ride through the southern Berkshires (almost all back roads) before passing the site of Alice's Restaurant and “the scene of the crime” in Stockbridge, and on the way back, “the church where Alice lived”. No big hills and shorter options possible. Start at 10:00am from the Salisbury LaBonne's Market parking lot (22 Academy Street, Salisbury, CT 06068 ) 15-16 mph, Faster & slower riders welcome. This year Roger will be leading the 68 mile route

The ride usually finishes around sunset so all riders should have a flashing rear light and a small front light will be helpful as well.
There are generally groups riding at various levels ranging from about 12.5 to 16.5 mph. There are several options to shorten the route since it makes a big loop around Great Barrington, so you can cut back to Great Barrington then head south on Route 41 to Salisbury.
All routes converge before Stockbridge, but all groups will meet in Stockbridge between 12:30 & 1pm. Many riders stop for lunch at the Elm Street Market • 4 Elm Street . The library at the corner of Elm & Main is next door and has rest rooms available.
