Comments(0)Hey H2B Supporters!
Are you riding out of Boston, but traveling into Boston just for us? Well, we’ve got a nice surprise for you!
The Marriott at Copley Place has generously offered to give H2B participants a discounted rate for the night before the ride. For $149, you get a room at one of Boston’s best hotels, and it’s only one block away from the start at Trinity Church in Copley Square!
There are only 10 rooms set aside, and the rate only lasts until Sept 12th, so book immediately!
Click on the following link to make your reservation. Note, the page says the rate was only available until 8/29, but we got it extended:

Thanks for supporting us from afar, and we look forward to your enthusiasm and energy!
Regards,

Hey folks!
A few people have been curious about the best way to get home after the ride.
The Boston Harbor Cruises fast-ferry is the absolute best way to get bikes, gear, and yourself back to Boston from Provincetown! There are several boats on Sunday 9/21, and BHC is giving huge discounts to our participants! You have to call or buy in person (you can’t buy online) but it’s only $25 for you and your bike and luggage!
BAM! 90 minutes later, you’re in Long Wharf - no traffic, no bike racks, no drama. Call BHC today (all their info is listed under the “Travel & Lodging” page: http://www.harbortothebay.org/travel.asp
H2B will not offer transportation of luggage or bikes back to Boston. Because we’re 100% volunteer, and committed to keeping the costs of the ride at their lowest possible level, we can’t offer trucks or trailers to get your items back home. Sorry for any inconvenience!
Hey H2B Team,
WOW! The ride is approaching fast and we’re entering the final three weeks! Log on to the H2B website to check out our latest totals, because you are on track to make this the most successful year yet for our beneficiaries!
Remember, 100% of every dollar you raise goes directly to benefit our friends and family living with HIV and AIDS!

Several days ago we put up the TOP 5 TEAMS widget on the Harbortothebay.org website. It was pointed out to us that the totals seemed to be wrong. They were so we took it down for a day. The bug was squashed and it is now back up with correct totals. You can see it at the bottom of the home page here, and on your Mobile device. Congratulations to those top 5 teams. Those totals so fare are impressive!
The CUE SHEETS for the FULL RIDE and HALF RIDE have also been updated. Those links are in the right sidebar here. You can also download the ROUTE MAP there.
