  1. My wife is trying to talk me into going along with her to Burlington VT
    in early August. Other than it being 24 hours of driving each way (I
    detest long drives, so this will be a test of our marriage), it might be
    fun. Vermont has a reputation for some interesting places to rides.

    Does anyone have any recommendations for 50-100 mile rides from the
    Burlington area?

    Much appreciated!

    It's shorter, but there's the Naked Crit!

    Hmmm. I might have some trouble convincing my wife that this would be a
    good thing to participate in...

    Burlington has some of the most beautiful riding in the East.

    There's the Lake Champlain bikeway.

    Head South to Middlebury. Stop for lunch in Vergennes.
    Try Middlebury Gap and Brandon Gap if you're ambitious.

    Or take the ferry West to New York, ride down to Essex, and back to
    Charlotte.

    Had North through the Hero's Islands. Stop at the Hero's Welcome.

    Visit Quebec. Get your prescriptions filled.

    The city has some bike paths too.
