Congratulations to Bill Northrup on a successful
Maratona Dles Dolomites! What a great
accomplishment. Last year Bill’s race
was abridged because of cold weather, rain and slippery roads. This year was
perfect: sunny with temperatures in the
70’s. At 65, this year was Bill’s last
attempt at completing the 138-km course. The organizers won’t let 65+ riders
into the 138-km event. Bill and his
daughter Tracy rode together; what a great way to spend the day with your
Dad! To fully understand how impressive this
accomplishment is, Bill survived the New England winter of 2013-14. Most of his rides this winter were done on a
trainer. Even this spring was rainy, and
that meant more time in the pain cave. Bill’s perseverance and dedication to his training were the key elements
to an incredible day in the Dolomites. Congratulations… well done!
