Rustic, challenging Connecticut back roads.   A great foliage option, but beautiful in all seasons.  No bail options — recommended for experienced cyclists who are good with the distance and climbing. Mexican and/or Indian lunch options -- depending on the day.

Starts-finish from Fairfield Metro North train station.  Purchase a bike-rail pass from ticket agent if coming up by train.
