‘The greatest, most awesome race ever’

On May 21 the town of Harvard hosted the seventh annual Ken Harrod Memorial Road Race presented by Minuteman Road Club. This year there were 263 cyclists competing on the hilly 10-mile loop course.

The Harvard Firefighters Association is grateful for the annual monetary donation raised by Minuteman Road Club from event proceeds. Firefighters controlled traffic along the course and at intersections to ensure the safety of the racers. This event is one of the region’s most reputable bike races. We would like to thank Harvard residents, especially those living along the course, for their courtesy and patience during the race. We would also like to thank the Harvard Police Department, the Ambulance Service, and the Littleton Police Department for their time and support.

Dylan Brody, a race participant, exclaimed, “I raced in the 4/5 race and this was the greatest and most awesome, most fun race ever. The course was great, had a little bit of everything, and the atmosphere was also super. Thank you for organizing everything; it felt very safe and organized, which is so very enjoyable as a racer. Overall I give this event an 11/10 because it was so good, I will definitely be back next year. Thank you!”
