Pinkham Notch — Formed last year after the tragic loss of a popular cyclist from New Hampshire, the Chad William Young Foundation, of Newmarket, N.H., has joined the Tin Mountain Conservation Center in promoting competitive and safe cycling for junior riders in this year’s Mt. Washington Auto Road Bicycle Hillclimb.
