A few weeks ago I rode the XVT Bikepack Route from the Canada Border to Ripton with a friend and this past weekend I rode it from the Mass. Border to Ripton with another friend. This is an absolutely awesome route that showcases some of the best mountain biking Vermont has to offer. Thank you Dave Tremblay and everyone involved in creating this route for all their years of hard work, it's so much better than I could have ever imagined.
For any that are interested, I wrote a post about part one of my trip.
