Gravel

Mostly Gravel

There are some great roads on this route, plenty of class IV, and it is always cool to drink spring water (mile 20) and fancy coffee (mile 33) right after popping out of the woods.

Couple of adventure sections.  Norford Lake and Poor Farm

Union Village dam start.  Across the bridge and Campbell Flats, Petersen, Hogback and Godfrey.  Burnham, and then the rolling paved climb up Academy.  Then Houghton Hill which becomes the Class 4 Turnpike South and North.  That stretch could be soggy. Quinnibeck, 244, and Lakeshore around Lake Fairlee, then past the airport and out to 113.  The Beanville road to Miller Pond, and then the Sawnee Bean descent to Poor Farm and Whippoorwill.  Buzzell Bridge back to the start.

Mostly gravel roads, but there is adventure on Houghton Hill and there may be some other unexpected delights.  Stop in Chelsea at mile 22 for food/water

Starting from Oak Hill, a short section of gravel on Reservoir, then Trescott, Etna, and Dogford. Returning via Hanover Center, Rennie and route 10.

Shamelessly copied from a ride that Lou Bregou posted to Strava - this route features the always wonderful Downer Forest, with a sneaky connector over to Route 132.  A mile of woods trail at the top of Alger Brook Road leads to stunning views on Whitcomb Hill, followed by more adventure in UVD and the old copper mines of Strafford.
