Touring, 'unofficial'-2

Jasper Mine Road
Address: 2 Jasper Mine Rd, Colchester, VT 05446, USA

Informal touring ride. Touring rides in April and October do not have assigned leaders and do not have 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.

No valid "end" times are listed for touring rides because of differences in riders' speed and distance traveled.

The shorter version (40 M) turns around after the break stop. This ride has a short stretch along the shore of the Lamoille River and a longer stretch along Lake Champlain. There is only one store on the ride and it is at the point where the two rides separate.
