Over lockdown, it seems like everybody took on their own epic cycling challenge. Well, Jeremy wanted to throw his hat into the ring. With 100 miles to cover and 10,000 feet of elevation, Powers’ Mount Greylock epic was never going to be easy! But with glorious autumnal views and some apple cider doughnuts to get him through, Jeremy had an awesome day on the bike.
If you’d like to do the ride yourself, here is the route:

What time of year would you like to ride this route? In autumn, summer or spring?
WOW. There is nothing missing in that video. Cycling, obviously. But then: architecture, history, botany, food, geography…and as usual for Jeremy: A buckload of positivity. Just what you need these days. Thanks!
Wicked ride!
Living in northern Connecticut, this was a joy to watch! I hope to see more New England content!
@Jeremy looks like a beautiful route! But if you REALLY wanna climb on the East Coast, you'll have to bring your camera crew to Western MD 😉 – https://garrettcountygranfondo.org/gcgf-rides/
Just added this ride to my bucket list!
This guy makes great videos.
Nice ride. Would love to do this ride someday. But half the miles lol
More Jeremy, please. He's the best.
awesome as always J power but WTF is up with the bar tape ? at 2 min in it looks like is it wrapped up to the stem? or maybe the bars have a logo on them dunno but it looks funky
100 miles? I would eat all six. Now I want apple cider donuts…
I can truly relate to the cow conversation you had I have them all the time except the cows always run away from me maybe it’s my helmet and shield scares the crap out of them of course anything can scare a cow they such scaredy cats😂✌🏼
"how's 2020 treating you?"
"well, i was out for a bike ride and i spent multiple minutes having an imaginary conversation with a bunch of cows"
"so pretty normal then"
"yeah"
Amazing! Having visited New England a few times, I can relate to a lot of things in this video. As always, the foliage season is spectacular, and JPow's sparkling enthusiasm makes everything even brighter.
awesome!
Looks lovely.. want to go, but when Jeremy, a seasoned CX racer says he’s cold…… brrrrrrr goes back to wine and fireplace.
sweet ride
Sweet route. And: Call me next time, I will ride it with you!! 💪

I’ve done both these mountains before! Never this much climbing or distance tho.
I've been a following J-Pow since Season 1 of Behind the Barriers and it's so great to see him continuing to crush it, all while making cycling approachable (and fun!).
Great video. I grew up cycling in Western Mass. I went to high school right near Conway. I used to ride 116 all the time through Ashfield while training. I went to college at the foot of Mt. Greylock and climbed it many times. To those not familiar with the area: yes it really looks like this in the Fall.
Great video. More of this please!
What an inspiration!!! Kudos to you Jeremy, great ride
Jeremy needs a US-based GCN riding buddy! I'm available! 🙂
I am planning on doing this ride. Where can I get the route for my Garmin?
Can you guys post the route? It looks beautiful. Thank you
MASSACHUSETTS BABYYYY!!!!!! WOOT WOOOOOOOOT!!!
Love this video but not sure how he did that route on that bike! I just tried it yesterday but only got through 50ish miles before I had to give up. Some of those dirt roads are brutal and rock filled. It would be rough with even a mountain bike.
So need to do a ride the whole coast of Cape Cod including the islands!
I had to come back and re watch this awesome video after doing my own 100 mile New England Fall ride yesterday. The route took me 106 miles through beautiful autumn leaves. Starting and ending in Nashua, New Hampshire, the ride peaked the summit of Mt Wachusett at mile 53. It was an unforgettable day!
Dude. Really fun. Thanks. Oh and congrats on an epic ride.
Thank you so much for the motivation. A cyclist from Hopedale, MA
I've biked up Mt Wachusett on a recumbent! Great ride!
best riding in the entire world.
so damn desperate to move back to new england
the riding in boulder colorado is so pitifully pathetic
I miss Jeremy, hope we'll see him more in 2022
Loved it! Are used to live at the base of Mount Greylock and very very familiar with that nasty steep beautiful climb. Now go do it again but this time is a GoPro on your chest so I can train along with you!
The northside of Greylock mountain. It is the balls.
Well now I’ve got something train for for next year. I love Autumn in the PNW but this New England ride looks amazing
It’s cool to see Mountain of my home town appear on GCN 😁 such a great climb to go up
Does this bike fare well against snow?
