    What a thrill on Perry Hill. At some point I've gotta get back to Vermont and spend a whole lot of time there. So many great mountain bike towns, so many great trails. Every town has their own little slice of heaven and Perry Hill in Waterbury was a TREAT. Lots of climbing with lots of great descending. The trail ratings were a little weird, as the double black diamond stuff never seemed too crazy. But later in the ride there was a small section of green trail (Campfire shown on the extended cut) that was really spicy. Other than those little things, this place was a hoot!

    I might have seen over 100 BKXC vids, and I don’t think I’ve ever wanted to teleport into a ride quite as much as today. Just a rad trail that was just spicy enough to be thrilling the whole way, I’m totally inspired for a NE US/Quebec trip.

    Hey Brian loved seeing you in my old stomping grounds of stowe. Vermont is dope. If you come back save my list - ranch camp (used to be my back yard). Cochrans is the best XC around IMO with awdome downhill like visceral and skulies. Bolton Valley just got lift access. Cady hill is more beginner bit still a ton of fun an new features every year. NEW HAMPSHIRE has some great riding too especially just south of mt.washington. a sick month would be Vermont to NH and thru NH to quebec (u know that place well). Cheers!
