Windham Aug 27/29

Unread post by dave »

This weekend there will mountain bike races at Windham Mountain Ski Center. They are estimating that there will be up to 30,000 people in Windham. We would strongly advise you to avoid this area this weekend.

We don't believe that there will be 30,000 people there, but it will be very crowded. It is nearly impossible to get media information from them. Because of this, we will NOT be covering the event. We believe that media coverage will be less then they are expecting.

They do plan on closing Rt 23 in Windham on Friday night.

It's going to be quite ugly. Too many people for too small of a space.

I don't think that any of the local news organizations are planning on covering it. Not sure why the Hunter Foundation did this.
