Village Green Granny Ride

Terrain: Rolling with 2 good hills

Distance: 40 Miles

Level: Intermediate

The Village Green Park in Millbrook is a favorite meeting place for the Montgomery Bike Club rides. You can ride around the Millbrook area and find about any terrain you want. There’s plenty of flat areas close to town, but you can find some hills north of Hwy 14 and west of CR 7.

From Montgomery: Travel north on I-65 to the Millbrook/Coosada exit (Hwy 143, you can only go one way) Follow 143 to the second stop light. The Village Park is on the left. If you turn left at the light and then left into the park, you'll find ample parking. From Prattville: take Hwy 14 east to Millbrook. Turn right at the stop light on Hwy 143 (Main Street). Village Green Park is on the right at the second stop light on 143.
