Biking in Vermont


Biking! The Green Mountains of Vermont are a favorite for bikers! Pleasure bikers find the scenery breathtaking and the serious bikers find the hills challenging.

In addition there are numerous bike races in the area. On August 17 Harpoon Brewery in Windsor, VT sponsors in connection with National Life a 100 mile ride as a fundraiser to benefit the Vermont Food Bank. Never fear though, you don't have to sign up for the entire 100 miles.  You can do a 25 or 50 mile ride and for those who want to stay close to Windsor you can do a 20 mile mountain bike loop around the trails at Mount Ascutney. The ride heads North along the Connecticut River to White River Junction and into the hill towns of Stratford and Topsham.  You return to Windsor via Barnard and Woodstock.

Of course, if you're going to do a bike ride like this you need to acclimate by doing some rides in the hills of Vermont in advance of August 12th and you need a day afterwards to recover. Leave No Trace Cabin has the week of August 6-13 available for booking. Less than 10 miles from the start....and did I mention that there is a jetted bath tub in the cabin to soothe those tired muscles?
