I wonder if this is done yet??? If so it might be worth considering altering our wed route down a newly paved case rd vs carpet bombed 179.

Jeff,

They are taking this route for the club ride today. I'm pretty sure Chris checked it out and the work has been completed. See the link for Tuesday ride for route from East Hartland down to intersection of 309 & 179 where they head up 309 and we would continue down 179. I think this is a great suggestion.

Adding a steep climb at the end of the ride? Not looking to win Miss Popularity are you Jeff?

In reply to pcunningham

I'd be the last one to do that. I don't think it's as bad as the climb at the 219 / 179 intersection climb if you go from 179 to 219 to south rd /edgertown, case. I haven't done it in a while but seem to recall it as an easier grade. Might be worth the smooth pavement.
