I got out on the Southern New England Trunkline Trail yesterday. I started in Franklin and made it out near Douglas before I turned back. It’s a nice mixture of stone dust, smooth pavement, and unmaintained gravel in all its washed-out, flooded glory. On the way out a couple of guys obviously in better shape than I caught up with (and eventually passed) me but was nice to chat and ride with them a bit until my fitness level let me down. 😅 I think their goal was to go to the end of that section in Putnam CT but that was way too much for me today… I made it as far as Douglas before turning back.

Looks pretty awesome. I have family in GA that have trails like this and I’m super jealous.
