Early Spring in Westchester
Primary tabs

We will be branching out from our urban winter rides with a 30 mile ride through Westchester. We will start at the Larchmont train station before meandering on mostly low traffic roads north to the Westchester Airport. From the airport we will be looping back south past Purchase Community College, potentially finding food near mile 20 (if not before). After lunch we will find our way back to Larchmont train station.
This will be a moderate-paced ride (at least 12 mph on flat terrain), with consistent hills to keep everyone’s heart pumping.
Please bring pocket food/snacks to keep you fortified until we get to lunch.
If you’re arriving via Metro North, there is a train departing Grand Central at 9:05am, arriving at 9:44 am. Please use the bathrooms on the train before arrival.
For those driving, please park near the Larchmont Train station and be ready to go when the train folks arrive.
Please make sure your bike is in good working condition, with properly inflated tires.
