Plainfield-Saint Gaudens #3 w/ Black Hill | 35.7 mi Cycling Route on Strava

I'll scout the Class 4 section tomorrow.  If it's no fun I'll post an updated route.
 

Start: 7AM, Plainfield school   https://maps.app.goo.gl/sMAfuUh7JteBWCPGA

We'll head up Colby Hill and Ladieu to Porter and the Black Hill Class 4 to Old County.  A bit of pavement, then Stage to Spencer to Hell Hollow.  Swoop down to 12A and back up the Saint-Gaudens road to the top of Dingleton Hill.  Down to Root Hill, Tandy Brook, and jackson, then back up East, Burr, and camp to the start.

Pace will be relaxed. This is a no-drop ride.  I'll ride sweep, so you won't be last. 
 

All riders should have joined the Upper Valley Cycling Club and signed the waivers for 2025:
