Riders will turn left out of the parking lot onto Hadley Street, and then left again onto Ferry Street, which continues past Brunelle’s Marina on the riverfront, and onto Alvord Street. Before McCray’s farm, riders will turn right onto River Lodge Road that returns to Alvord Street via Upper River Road, Sans Souci Drive, and Stonegate Drive. On the return, riders will turn left back on to Alvord Street, with an option to stop at McCray’s Farm Creamery for ice cream, before continuing back along Alvord, Ferry, and Hadley Streets to the Village Commons Lot. There is also an option to do an additional 1-mile loop at the River-to-Range Trail, which has a lookout over marshy wetlands and a short spur that leads to the Connecticut River.
