Reynolds Real Estate Sponsers Battenkill-Roubaix Cycling Race
Salem, NY - Race organizers announce the 3rd annual Battenkill-Roubaix Cycling Race in Salem, NY. The 2007 edition of this race will be held on Saturday, April 14. The event expects to draw close to 800 professional and amateur racers from throughout the US and Canada. The race will again benefit the public libraries of Southern Washington County, NY and Farm Team Cycling - a local bicycle racing club for area youth.
The race is fashioned after the prestigious 100 year old Paris-Roubaix in France where racers trek over a very difficult course that includes cobblestone paths, narrow roads, and scenic European villages. It's North American counterpart - the Battenkill-Roubaix - features both paved and dirt road sections, difficult hill climbs, and - pending local approvals - exciting passes through the small villages of Salem, Cambridge, and Greenwich, NY where an estimated 2500 spectators were present for the 2006 edition.
