Rapphannock Rough Ride 60 Mile Route

The medium and long paved routes share the first 28 miles. At mile 28, the long paved route turns right onto Crest Hill and heads east away from Flint Hill. Crest Hill takes riders approximately 8 miles to Leeds Manor Rd. Crest Hill maintains the theme and is mostly hilly although the last few miles are flatter.

At Leeds Manor, riders turn left and ride 4 miles north to Hume. At Hume, riders turn left onto Hume Rd and are greeted with some of the best views of the rolling hills and mountains. Riders spend 7 miles on Hume Rd and are greeted with their second and last rest stop at mile 43.

At mile 47 riders turn left on 522 and ride south for 3 miles before turning right on Hittles Mill. Take care on 522, this is often a headwind and generally has more traffic than the rest of the route. Riders take Hittles to Dearing and finally onto Fodderstack for their final assault up the steep climb on Fodderstack at mile 56. The last few miles are mostly a descending ride back into Washington.
