Description: A
relaxing, meandering ride on back roads through two
small towns and a variety of pastoral scenery --
forests, rivers and streams, vineyards, horse farms,
orchards, residential areas, and vegetable farms. Along
the way we'll encounter the historic stone houses of
Huguenot Street (the oldest continuously occupied street
in America), a skydiving ranch, wineries, and even the
campus-like printing operation of the Watchtower
Society. Not the
most stunning scenery in Ulster County, but rather a
constantly changing mix of charming sights. Lots of
nice views of the Shawungunk ridge to the West. Gently
rolling hills with just a few short steeper climbs,
mostly in the first eight miles. Shares a few short
stretches with traffic, but mostly quiet roads.
Depending on local events, there may be traffic on the
last few miles of the ride. Non-recumbent friends
welcome.
Rain Date is June 11th
