Follow the west route out of town. Follow 601 past Foxfield and continue to the Hunt Country Corner. Turn right at the store onto 601. Take the next right onto 676. Take the next left onto 660 (Reas Ford Rd). Continue down a twisty hill, across the reservoir and up a moderate hill. Continue along 660 as it flattens out for a few miles to a 4-way intersection at “Kelly’s Corner”. Turn left on 743. Whyte’s store and a pizza restaurant are just up from this intersection. The parking lot is the meeting point for the Tuesday/Thursday summer CBC rides. Continue on 743 (go sinlge-file-lots of traffic) to a Y intersection in “downtown” Earlysville. There is a store right in the middle of this intersection. Bear left on 664. Continue on 664 past Broadus Woods Elementary School (on your left). AT the next intersection just before Chestnut Grove Church, keep going straight on 664 where you will climb a short steep hill by the church. The road curves around, keep following the main road and bear left at the next intersection. You just stay on the main road although the route number changes to 665. Continue on 665 (a nice flat road for awhile) to a big downhill, then a gradual uphill to rolling roads that lead you past a vineyards, farms and into downtown Free Union. Turn left in Free Union onto 601. There is a store just on your right after this turn. Continue on 601 down a big hill across the Meechums River and up a significant hill. Continue on 601 and bear right at the next intersection (stay on the main road). Continue back to the Hunt Country Store. Turn left at the T intersection onto 601 (Garth Rd.) and retrace your path back to town. You’ll need to be alert for the right hand turn at the bottom of the “Good Morning Hill” onto 21 curves- (Old Garth Rd) Use both your brakes and good sense!
Follow 601 through Farmington, past the golf course on your right, straight through the intersection with the 250 bypass and back under the RR overpass to a stop light with 250. Left on 250 puts you on Ivy Rd. Continue onto University Ave.
