The Internet of Bikes: Waterboro Dayton Hollis Mitchell Hill Loop


View Waterboro Dayton Hollis Mitchell Hill in a larger map
The Waterboro Dayton Hollis Mitchell Hill Loop pushes west on familiar roads through Dayton and Lyman to Waterboro and returns through Hollis and makes its way to Mitchell Hill for hill repeats. It is slightly longer than the Lyman loop which heads for home at that town. Total moving time was 309 minutes (including a short break at the Dayton Town Office) and a total distance of about 92 miles. Average moving speed was about 18 miles per hour and maximum speed was 36.5 miles per hour. Total elevation gain was 5,318 feet and maximum elevation was 325 feet. Maximum grade was 12%.  For some reason, the Mitchell Hill segment does not appear on the map, and the grade of 12% is different from the previous visit to this climb. Frame and Wheel was not fiddling with the phone at this point of the ride and expects that inconsistencies like this have to be a feature of the technology. The weather was favorable, but air temperatures are noticeably lower around Waterboro. There is still quite a bit of snow on the ground and there were some patches of ice.
