What Members Are Saying About This Trip/Event
- PS Following the ride, a few of us made our way back to Frog Meadow for a cool-down dip in the swimming pond, a soak in the wood-fired hot tub, and some snacks to round out the day. A good time was had by all! - Frogmeadow
- This was one of the most invigorating rides I’ve taken. Lovely vistas, smooth roads, and easier terrain than you’d expect among these green hills. From Brattleboro, Vermont, we spun south along the Connecticut River on easy roads. Farms dominated the landscape, with one casting itself as “Typical Vermont.” After ice cream in Northfield, Massachusetts, we rode into New Hampshire on the opposite side of the Connecticut through lovely woodland. It was three hours of cycling happiness. - travelwriter
