VALLEY ROAD LOOP
The first few miles may seem like fun and games, however you’ll soon be treated to a series of climbs with double digit grades. Maine does not understand using switchbacks in their roads or hiking trails. These are straight up climbs. Filmed in the foothills of rural Maine mid springtime, you’ll see apple trees in blossom and lots of green new growth. There is even a daring squirrel darting across the road. Be sure to save something for the last climb, One wonders why they called it Valley Road.
