North Road: Shelbourne to Bethel, 9:00 am

Thursday, July 9, 2015 

Looks like good weather for Thursday! How about heading up to Bethel via North Road? It should be a fine time to do it with good shade and no traffic. 

To make the ride a bit different, start in Shelbourne Village instead of the usual Hogan Road parking area. It cuts out some miles, cuts out a few sharp climbs at the end, and adds a nice ride on a quiet road with nice views. I have 2 house guests from CA joining us for this ride!!

Start: ready to ride at 9:00 am. 

Total Mileage, about 35. 



To get to the parking area take Route 16 north to Gorham, hang a right on Route 2, go about 4.5 miles. Take a left into Shelbourne Village, (might be signed as Meadow Road) then very shortly afterward take a right into the tiny village. Park in the playing field/ballpark on the left side of the road (via a dirt driveway).
