Columbus Day ride

I rode 57 miles today on the De Rosa. Crossed briefly into eastern CT for approx. 10 miles. It was colder today than it has been, high of 55, cloudy.

Mill pond dam in Killingly



Cemetery series from CT border.

I saw this cool white caterpillar and all I have to show is this blurry picture. Blasted cell phone!





As I plan my travel next year, I think I'm going to have to explore some of these places. The more I see of the area, the more intrigued I am by the possibilities of spending some time in RI. Do you think the roads you travel on would be suitable for riding with a tandem? In other words, what are the hills like?
It's the same here as Concord MA. Short. steep climbs. Nothing longer than a mile or two. I'm sure you could handle it. You do about the same elevation gain on a 20 mile ride (with a 3 speed!) that I do on a 60 mile ride.
