| Conditions: |
Start at the parking lot near the Lake McDonough dam at the intersection of Rt. 219 and Ratlum Road. From there, go up Ratlum and take Doyle to the climb to the fire tower. From there to Breezy Hill to Nepaug and hit either the single track or just do the climbs on the dirt roads. On the way back, we can climb back up Breezy Hill to Barbourtown and back down Doyle. There is a bail out option at Satan's Kingdom to get you back to 219 on the Farmington River Turnpike (flat dirt). People need to know that there is some seriously steep climbing here (both paved and dirt). Nothing really technical except for some washed out roads. VT50 training ride |
