345 miles for me. That route 9 in Worcester kicked my but. It's the last time I ride that road. Next time I'll go around.

No Rt.112 in VT heads south back into MA through Shelburne Falls and ends at Rt. 116. We rode most of it. My seedo is 5 mph fast according to my gps. I try to keep it 5 mph above but sometimes it just wants to go a wee bit faster. Don't ask me why it just does it

With all of the kids going back to school? All of those college areas will be packed with out of state people that don't know where they're going. It wasn't bad going through the Amherst College area this weekend but I would bet that next weekend would be dramatically different. Not to mention the moving trucks.

Hmm, I didn't think about colleges, although I think that Freshmen are required to arrive early to minimize the gridlock.
