Vermont Biking Middlebury Mt & Texas Falls

Below are pictures from my bike ride in the Rochester / Hancock area of central Vermont. The ride was up Middlebury Mt and then a trail in the Texas Falls area. Roughly 27 miles of road riding and 2 miles of trail. I'll let the pictures do the talking and just a few commentary in the hovertext of the images.

all the right ingredients for a screaming fast 70 MPH descent!!!
Texas Falls is great, but what's this all about no public nudity?!?! Some rules are made for breaking...

The flash floods of Aug 2008 wiped out the road. Something like 5-7 inches of rain in an hour or two
Trailhead sign. Hmm, hikers only, yet trail closed. Who can go here :) ???
