The only independent, nonprofit news organization solely dedicated to reporting on the Adirondack Park.
In the May issue of the Explorer, Alan Wechsler writes about competing in the the Wilmington Whiteface 100-kilometer (62-mile) bike race last June. The race goes from the base of Whiteface Mountain to Elizabethtown and back. It is a qualifier for the Leadville 100, a famous mountain bike race that is set in the Colorado Rockies. Above are some photos I took of the 2018 Wilmington Whiteface competition.
