UV Slow Spokes - Five & Dime


Details
This 21 mile route goes north in Vermont on US-5 and returns south on NH-10, hence the name “Five and Dime.” Instead of using NH-10 all the way back we will start south by riding on scenic River Road along the Connecticut River.
We will have a store and porta-pot stop about half way through the ride and will stop again somewhere on River Road. This ride is not too hilly, but does have a grind up to NH-10 from River Road and another climb on the famous Chieftain Hill just before the end.
** Caution - there are 2 crossings of RR tracks at a bad angle - be careful!
Bring snacks and water to refresh yourself at regroup spots.
We will not leave anyone behind and will probably average around 10 mph.
Please arrive early to get your bike ready and meet other riders.
Park at Garipay Field, Reservoir Rd, Hanover, NH. Pre-ride porta-pot available.
Ride departs at 10:00 AM.
