Join us for a challenging 82 mile ride through beautiful (but hilly!)  Westchester, Greenwich and Putnam counties at the height of the fall foliage season!  This ride also includes plenty of waterfront mileage along pristine upstate reservoirs.  Great for photos! The six-mile, 1,000+ foot descent from Canopus Lake into Cold Spring is worth the trip itself!

Ride with GPS page here (use "export tab" at upper right to download gps/tcx files).  User-friendly downloadable pdf cue sheet below.

Please be prepared to ride at 16 MPH on the flats, hills at your own pace and regroup at the tops. Absent unexpected circumstances, the ride will proceed in four roughly 20-25 mile stretches, with breaks in-between (shown on the Ride with GPS map). We'll have lunch at Truck in Bedford.  Convenient bail-out options at 28, 48 and 56 mile points, via Metro-North. Trains return to NY from Cold Spring hourly at approximately 14 minutes after each hour.

Long range forecast says clear with a high of 57 degrees!

Bring: 2 spare tubes, water, Metro-North bike pass, money for food and trainfare ($14.00), suitable clothing including removable extra layers, and a camera for pictures.
