    Light, rolling hills with beautiful views by the lake. The 35-mile (E/M) route goes out to Kill Kare State Park (bring park pass or money in case groups goes into 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 if you are planning on the Social Ride version of this ride.

    Start at the Park-n-Ride in Hinesburg and head south on rolling gravel hills. These are mainly very quiet roads with little traffic! To cut the ride short, there is an easy mid-point turn around where the route touches. Post-ride food is abundant in this part of Hinesburg--stop at Frost Brewery for a cold can of après brew.

    Long ride: 41 miles, 3,140 ft elevation; short ride: 22.8 miles

    One of the flattest rides of the season. The 28-mile ride (E/M) circles Grand Isle and a 43-mile option (M) stops at the end of North Hero. Riders on the 74-mile (M) ride can visit St. Anne's Shrine (bathrooms and picnic tables but no food) and a fossil bed with a food break at Hero’s Welcome in North Hero.

    Please contact Karla for Social Ride information and sign ups.

    Riders From Burlington may consider car pooling.

    40 (E/M) and 55 (M/S) options of hilly terrain on low-traffic roads in New York. There are two potential stops for ice cream. Bring money for the ferry and food stops. The shorter version of this ride skips the big hill out of Willsboro.

    Ready by 8:30 for the 9:00 ferry. There is a short ride to the ferry.

    Meeting Place: Old Champlain Flyer parking lot, Ferry Road, Charlotte (aka the Charlotte Park and Ride), NOT the ferry parking lot.
