This is a pretty hilly ride. We start at J. Hood Wright Park on Ft. Washington Ave. at 174th St. (where there are bathrooms) and head for River Road (hills), followed by a little detour to the State Line Lookout, (another hill}, b/c the view is so beautiful. Then to Piermont via Tallman State Park, (hard pack trail, not asphalt) then to Nyack, where you can choose among the many places to eat. After lunch, it's over the Cuomo to the east side. We'll visit Lyndhurst estate immediately after the bridge (hill), then up another climb (Harriman Road) to the South County Rail Trail where we get some respite before we hit the the Bronx (hills). Then we'll go over the Henry Hudson Hudson Parkway Bridge, through Inwood Hill Park and back to the GW. Please bring your usual stuff, tire repair supplies, water, snacks, and your sense of adventure. If you're not up for the full 50, you can catch the train back to Grand Central from Tarrytown at about mile 30.
