ERRANDONNEE 2016


An errandonnee is essentially a challenge to complete 12 errands, within 12 days, by bicycle, covering (in total) 30 miles or more. There are nine categories of errands and you can do a maximum of two errands per category. The challenge really is to identify errands that fit the categories in addition to potential weather problems that one could incur in March, particularly in Connecticut. The errandonnee is hosted by https://chasingmailboxes.com and this was our second year giving it a try. It was great fun!
