Wife is interviewing this week and I'll have a couple days. Want to check out some local hills rather than drop the bones on Killington or Sunapee. Dartmouth Skiway but it looks like it and Stors aren't open on Tuesday. Saskadena Six might be cause it's a holiday (at least for us and I'm hoping).
Any other hills open?
Looks like the snow will be wet and heavy but Im just excited to send it.
And it's only 15 minutes away. Pisser. Thanks! Any recommendations for lunch spots in Lebanon/WRJ where I should start? We are moving up soon and want to get a feel for the towns. I'm looking for local clubs to join: hiking, mountain biking, swimming, canoe camping
Marsh Brothers or Lucky’s in Leb; Tuckerbox or Big Fatty’s in WRJ. Upper Valley Mountain Bike Association is where it’s at for clubs.
Dartmouth Skiway is a gem and about $40 for a day pass
Edit: open 9am-4pm
Lucky’s Coffee Garage and Lalo’s Taqueria in Leb. Tuckerbox in WRJ.
Heck yes. Is anybody getting a social cycling group going up there? In Austin we had a Facebook group and we'd post routes and different people would lead rides. We had Bike Curious Sundays, Saturday Morning Caffeine Cruise, Thursday Night Social (imagine 300 bar hoppers)
I wonder if anybody would have any interest in a Saturday morning coffee stop road bike ride.
Is it open Tuesday? The website said Wed
Ok I'm coming from Texas so Lalo's will have a high bar to reach.
It’s not gonna beat Texas, but it’s good food and good people.
Apparently not. I wanted to double check and they just changed their open days to Wednesday-Sunday. Sorry friend :(
The guys at the bike shop in Leb used to run a regular Sunday ride in the summer. Not sure what the current status of that group is, but there’s a whole bunch of regular rides in the area, and it’s really easy to find smaller groups, since basically everyone here rides.
Normally yes, they’re closing mon/tue for spring hours. Not sure if that started this week or not. Give them a call to check.
UVMBA has organized rides at least once a week, Woodstock Area MTB Association also has weekly MTB and gravel rides (highly recommend the latter). Drummond Cycles in Enfield also has shop rides.
That's all that matters!
We're up till Friday so I definitely will hit it up.
Magic mountain isn't upper valley but it's not that far. It's a lot cheaper than Killington and easily some of the best terrain south of Rt 4. It should also be prime with this southern tracking storm.
Seconding Magic.
If you have a touring setup, Cardigan and Ascutney should both be pretty solid this week and are close by.
I board. I've got a Ride Highlife freestyle deck. Pretty stiff but pops.
Just an fyi that Magic has said Wednesday will be its open powder day, not Tuesday!
I hadn't seen that update yet. Good call!

Whaleback opens mid-afternoon on Tuesdays and then has night skiing
