CRW Hillsborough Country Ride 01Nov08

This is a Charles River Wheelmen ride described on their cue sheet as follows: "This new ride takes you northwest from Tyngsborough up to Mont Vernon NH. Enjoy the fall air and country roads. We go up through Hollis, then take a long downhill and back roads into Amherst Center (store). The green in Amherst (elev. 260) makes a great lunch stop. Then we will roll up to Mont Vernon (elev. 820 feet) to be rewarded with a thundering downhill south toward Milford. We next pick up the Fall Century route so as not to miss the downhill on Old Milford Rd coming into Brookline NH (store). Using some of the less traveled roads we return to Pepperell (stores, rest rooms at Dunkin Donuts) then across Groton to Island Pond Rd. One more uphill then you can coast it home a few miles to the parking lot. The short ride splits west at Hollis to cut off Amherst and Mont Vernon, and returns through Brookline. Several hills on both rides are challenging although rewarding."by gdavis
