36 miles, 3385 elevation. This one is for if you are feeling ambitious and really want to climb! It also starts at the Berkshire Bike and Board in Great Barrington to keep distance reasonable, since there is a lot of steep climbing. This route takes you on some tough climbs, culminating in the climb up Mt. Washington from the New York side. At the base of that climb (around mile 15) there is another bike shop if you need it, and also a rest area and water fountains just off to the left near a swimming lake. At around mile 16-17 or so (nearly to the top of the climb), you could take a stop at the parking lot and hike down to see Bash Bish Falls. Once you're done summiting, there's a long (4-5 miles?) descent to South Egremont. But there are still some little hills left that will feel like Alpe d'Huez by the time you get to them. If you are dying, pull into my in-laws' place at 173 Division St! But by this point you're downhill to the finish.
