Your entry fee will include at least the following: two rest stops on each riding day with snacks and drinks, emergency sag support, mechanical support, gear shuttle, overnight accommodations for two nights in Montreal and breakfast on Saturday.

Roadside support will be provided as necessary, but we can’t be everywhere at once, especially if the group spreads out, so please be prepared to be self sufficient as much as possible and be patient if you need support. Also note that there will be several long stretches without services and/or cell service and riders are expected to be properly prepared, self sufficient and have the ability to navigate on their own. For a list of items to bring, see our Montreal Double Double specific CHECKLIST.

FRIDAY, RIDE DAY: Schuylerville, NY to Montreal: ~ 200 miles
SATURDAY, REST DAY: No official group activities planned –
enjoy the day in Montreal!
SUNDAY, RIDE DAY: Montreal to Schuylerville, NY: ~ 200 miles
Final details, cue sheets, itineraries and other information will be sent to all registered riders with their final confirmation notification, usually 5-7 days before the start of the event.
The terrain will be varied, with three distinct sections.
The 30 miles between Schuylerville and Lake George will be rolling, with a couple of 1-2 mile gradual climbs. The next 100 miles to Plattsburgh will be typical Adirondack terrain: short steep hills with a few long climbs (2-4 miles) thrown in for good measure. The final 70 miles into Montreal will be a stark contrast to the ride so far. It will be flat. Pancake flat. Kansas flat. Unbelievably flat. No hills except for a couple of highway overpasses and bridges.
Overall, there's about 5,600 feet of climbing going north, and about 6,700 feet of climbing going south, with most of it coming between Lake George and Plattsburgh.
 
The weather will most likely be hot and humid, with a chance of an afternoon thunderstorm and early morning fog. The wind is usually from the south or the west in the summer but can come from any direction and please note that there is not a lot of shade on this route.
