Piedmont area of Virginia. All of the land is above the fall-line,
on the Staunton River watershed. (The Staunton is actually a
section of the Roanoke River that carries a different name) Even
the shorter routes will have some up-and-downhill sections as
you approach and ride away from the river valley or cross streams
that are heading south to meet that river. The picture below
shows a rolling road typical of grades on the Railroad Route. There
are some extra challenges on the Century and Metric Century.
