This long-popular criterium race has been on hiatus since roadwork canceled it back in 2018 and then the pandemic pushed it off longer. This year, it is back in all its glory as part of Beverly’s a…

We are saddened to hear of the passing of Dick Ring, the voice of New England cycling. Dick’s influence on the sport in this region can’t be underestimated. So many of us who raced and promoted races in New England saw him at almost every event . When he wasn’t working, he was watching and cheering us on. It didn’t matter if you raced elite or beginner class. Dick was there to support racers. We had the pleasure of having Dick announce the very first GP Gloucester in 1999 where these photos are from. Our thoughts are with Dick’s family, friends, and the New England cycling community. Rest in peace, Dick.

First photo taken 25 SEPT, 2nd photo 10 SEPT. We seeded and added an organic fertilizer. The hillside is taking a little longer. 3rd pic shows new growth on the hillside. We’ll show you the results in a couple of weeks (we are a landscaping FB page now lol).

5 days post-event. Park is bouncing back nicely with all the rain. Landscaping treatment done on the hillside will pay dividends in the next couple of weeks. (No filter on photos).

Event update: we’ve done an assessment of the park post-event and have been in contact with our landscaper. The good news is that the majority of impact is due to grass blades that are bent and compressed. After some rain and a few days, most will look like we weren’t there. In some areas, we will need to address. We’ve contacted the city to update them on our plans over the coming days. The grass is in great shape and we have the fall growing season ahead of us.

What a day. My thank you posts usually feature a rad photo of someone crushing at cyclocross. But this image of a neighborhood girl working to clean the park post-event means everything. We had so much help in putting this event on. We had some challenges, not the least being our beloved course designer, Tom is desperately fighting cancer and couldn’t join us this year.

But everyone came together: neighbors, friends, family, city officials, random strangers and we pulled it off.

Thank you to all of our sponsors, volunteers, race officials, race announcers, beer vendors, athletes. Everyone.

Thank you.
