Comment by groundchucky on 2009-09-25 17:05:49 I do this ride once a summer. It is probably a top 5 hardest climb in the lakes region. I leave from Rhino Bike Works in Plymouth head west on rt.25 to rt 3A take (left) 3A south to North Shore RD (right) into Hebron and continue straight on Groton Rd. then turn right on North Groton Rd. This is where you start the big climb. You know you've made it to the top when you pass the Groton dump. When you head down hill you have two options at Groton Hollow you can take a right and continue down Halls Brook Rd. (very fun downhill) or stay on North Groton Rd do a 2nd climb then head down to rt 118. Halls Brook Rd will take you back to rt 25 go right back to plymouth. If you go straight to rt. 118 go right and that will take you back to rt.25. There are many options to add miles |
