Classic paved and unpaved Gap A-Ride with some challenging but rideable class IV on Rochester Gap and in Middlebury and Lincoln. Spectacular views on the Braintree Hill finish after Roxbury Gap. Stores available at mile 39 (Ripton), mile 60 (Jerusalem), and mile 73 (Waitsfield). Definitely recommend lots of water/carbs, wide tires, negative gear ratios, and climbing legs.
