A challenging gravel ride that enters the hills and hollows around Madison and Charlottesville in the Shenandoah Foothills. Lots of beautiful views and excellent resupply. Works quite well as a challenging winter route due to the lack of high elevations. The intention of this route is to introduce the rider to section ride parts of the Shenandoah foothills Gravel SR600. 700x35 tires minimum are recommended.
