A perfect ride for all levels from D to B. The route is perfect for a leisurely pace to enjoy the beauty of the great swamp or as a pace-line training ride. The one larger hill on Millbrook Road is purposely included in the first third of the ride while your legs are fresh. Although there are no places to stop for food on this ride, Loantaka Park at Mile 11 is a great place to stop and regroup and take a bathroom break if needed. The starting point also has a bathroom available if the municipal building is open. | 8: James Anderson, Wendy Chan (B+), Doug Gardner (C), Tara Ding, Richard Poore (C), Manuel Coelho, Andrew Diorio, Jeff Baun (C) | Ridden | |
