Hi Alex,
Please can you confirm the 4pm race location on Friday - Is it now in Medford - at Mystic River Reservation
https://www.google.com/maps/place/Torbert+Macdonal... - There is also a Riverbend park in Cambridge near Harvard Square, and
I assume it is no longer at North Point Park near Lechmere as I once thought.
Many thanks - excited to join.
Ian
It is in Medford, just north of the morning location.
There is construction going on at North Point for the bridge replacement, so we have mapped a new part of the parkland along the Mystic.
Parking at Hormel Stadium?
Yes, park at Hormel Stadium for the afternoon.
Where is the Franklin Park parking?
At the parking lot on the north side of circuit drive near the North entrance to the Zoo.
