Georgia Park and Ride
Address: 2840 Skunk Hill Rd, Georgia, VT 05478, USA

Please register for this ride here.

Light, rolling hills with beautiful views by the lake. The 35-mile (E/M) route goes out to Kill Kare Park and returns while the 50-mile (M) route continues on to Swanton and back. Both rides can break for food at St. Albans Bay.

For those coming from the Burlington area, we suggest carpooling at the Colchester Park and Ride at Exit 17 off I-89 or perhaps meeting at UVM or Veterans Memorial Park in South Burlington.

Please confirm with Donna or Karla if you are planning on the Social Ride version of this ride.

    Brian Howard will serve as leader for the metric century (62 miles). If you would like to be a co-leader for either the 25-mile or 100-mile rides please contact Brian.

    Please register for this ride here. Because there are no assigned leaders for these end of season rides, it is possible that no one will have access to this registration information during the ride, so please be prepared.

    At the beginning and end of the riding season we have leaderless rides from a set location.  These touring rides do not have assigned leaders and or a planned route. Due to often unpredictable weather during those months, distance and route is determined by whomever shows up. Only the start/meeting site is predetermined. There may be one or more groups and/or destinations.
