The ‘Rider’s Test’ has it all. Traversing three fabled local preserves, Hartman Park, Wahlbridge Woodlands and Young as well as Nehantic State Forest, the course features Lyme’s ‘Three Bears’ in the form of three monster climbs.
At mile 9.5 and rest stop of the Rider’s Test, riders can choose to either complete the remaining 10 very technical miles of the northern loop or return south through the Nehantic Forest back to Ashlawn Farm and the finish line.
Rider’s Test leaves at 8:15am.
Intermediate Ride leaves at 8:30am.
We do not post the ride due to it crossing Private Owner’s land – we receive permission for one day use of their property.
