3.28 miles; Moosup & Sterling, CT This hike is on what becomes the Trestle Trail in Rhode Island; aka, The Washington Secondary Bike Path. The stretch between the end of the pavement in Moosup and the parking lot on Route 102 in Coventry is in kind of bad shape, but there are supposedly plans to […]

2.25 miles; Killingly, CT Ugh. Another “swimming in the air” type high humidity day, with rain threatening the whole time.

13.4 miles; Foster and Gloucester, RI and Killingly, CT After the 17-mile leg, then the “easy-peasy” 10.1 miler, this didn’t seem as if it would be very difficult at all. Well, a 13-mile hike is still a long-assed hike, and I haven’t been spending hardly any time hiking recently. Long story short, I was really […]
