[Becka writing] This 45-mile loop ride from Montpelier is one of my favorites. We had lovely day to glide along the Rt. 12 river valley south to Northfield and see the newly tilled farm fields! Yummy brunch at the Red Kettle, and then up up up Rt. 12 into Roxbury/Brookfield. Swooping down to the Brookfield Floating Bridge, the highlight of the trip, we stopped for a bite to eat until the black flies decided to have the same. Looped over to Rt. 14, to pedal back to Barre & Montpelier. We did not ride across the bridge itself - slippery and gets your brakes wet. A delightful ride, several interesting highlights, and a nice snapshot of central Vermont.

Jim and I walked across the floating bridge the last time we were in Vermont. We also had dinner in a lovely local Inn nearby. This was a beautiful spot. Nice that you could cycle from Montpelier.
