Borovsk
Description
A beautiful hilly route through the Borovsk and Naro-Fominsk districts. Most of it is on asphalt, crossing many bridges over rivers and streams, with a good amount of climbing. The most technical part is the dirt road from Ustye to Zagryazye, where you'll be huffing and puffing a bit in wet weather. The rest of the time you can take in the forests, river valleys and old landmarks. The most interesting are Karl Blank's churches in Spas-Kositsy, visible right from the route.
