This is a scout ride that will be at a 12-15 mph pace on the flats, but is listed as Advanced Pace ride due to over 2400 ft of climbing! We will leave from Pleasantville and traverse via backroads to Mount Kisco where we will grab a quick bite (around mile 10-11) and then push on skirting the New Croton reservoir before heading back south to the outskirts of Ossining and finally back to Pleasantville. 

As this is a scout we will make a stop in Mount Kisco as it does not appear we will have any other services until we reach the outskirts of Ossining a little after mile 32 or back to Pleasantville, mile 36. Come prepared with 2 full bottles of water and snacks for the in-between. 

The ride will leave from the Pleasantville train station at 9:15 am. If you’re arriving via Metro North, there is a train departing Grand Central at 8:09am, arriving at 9:05 am.  For those driving, please find parking in either the Train station parking lot or somewhere nearby, and be ready to go when the train folks arrive. 

If we need to cancel due to weather we will push it to a later weekend in the new year.
