We parked at the Newcomerstown High School, 702 S River St, Newcomerstown, OH 43832. Plenty of parking at the school.

Thanks to Tim Cristy for adapting this route from a longer route. Lots of climbing on this route. The Coshocton/Newcomerstown/Port Washington area is very similar terrain.

The route has estimated 60%+ gravel. First nine miles of the route is paved on some nice country roads. Last three miles are paved back Into town.

Some barkers and runners. A lot of horses and cows in the fields too. We had a couple of deer bound from the woods in front of us.

We had a puncture on a tubeless tire and a spin sealed it up and we kept moving. Derailleur issues on one bike caused some climbing issues. Flat at the end needed a pump up to get back to the cars.
