This is a ride through scenic Westchester County to Tarrytown, where we will have excellent Greek food for lunch at Lefteris Gyro Diner.  After leaving Van Cortlandt Park at West 242nd Street we head North through the old Hudson River towns of Yonkers, Hastings-on-Hudson, Dobbs Ferry and Irvington. We join the Old Croton Aqueduct in Hastings and continue North where we meet the Tarrytown Riderwalk, which runs behind Lyndhurst Mansion’s grounds.  We take the Riverwalk to its end.  From there we join Broadway and head North until we slip into the side streets of Tarrytown. Once we hit Main Street in Tarrytown, we will stop for lunch at Lefteris Gyro.  Afterwards we head East on Neperan Avenue and the Tarrytown Lake Trail until we meet the South County Trail. We ride South on the South County Trail back to the start at Van Cortlandt Park and West 242nd Street.

N.B.  Part of this ride is on the unpaved, dirt trail of the Old Croton Aqueduct. The section on which we will be riding, Dobbs Ferry to the Riverwalk, is easily passable with street bike tires. 

This is a Moderate ride, not a Happy Face ride – be prepared to keep a steady pace of 12-13 mph.
