The Belgrade Lakes






We had another great ride in Litchfield last week - Litchfield really has an abundance of great back roads. Many thanks to George for leading and marking the route. This week Memorial Day weekend arrives earlier than usual, and we will revisit a popular ride around the Belgrade Lakes. If we don't see you then, have a safe and pleasant holiday weekend.
