Kelly Stand Rd

So what's the deal with this road? I see it goes through Arlington & Stratton. I'm thinking of doing this as part of a Friday ride. Is it a dirt rd?

Is it well maintained? It looks like a nice ride.

Definitely changes each year... and I don't think it's maintained in the winter, right Kurt? Otherwise it's like most dirt roads around. Pretty well packed, not too much loose gravel, but there could be a surprise or two.

It's worth a try. I figure go from Arlington through Stratton-head to 100 North a bit.

Yup that's a nice ride up 100 for sure. You can cut back on 30 or 11 to Manchester, or if you have more time, up to 103 I think it is. All kindsa good roads up there.
