South & North County Trail

Counting leaves, originally uploaded by Rich.
I uploaded some pictures from my Tuesday’s solo tempo ride in Westchester county. I rode on the South and North County trailway. What an amazing ride with nice and cool weather in mid 50s and colorful display of falling leaves everywhere. I made it to the Croton reservoir, turned around and headed back to the city. A little over 83 mile with a few short breaks for picture taking and re-fueling at Dunkin Donuts.
I have put a set of pictures on Flickr!: South & North County Trail (2009). Plus, if you want to trace the route, check out my ride with all the info (speed, heart rate and elevation profiles and a Google map, too) on Garmin Connect: NJ/NY - North & South County Trails. Now, if you prefer to see the route in Google Earth you are in luck. Just download the NJNY - North & South County Trails.kmz file and have fun with it… BTW, you can pull the file directly from the Garmin Connect site, too.

Will definitely do it again soon, this time reach further north;-) Hope you are all riding and enjoying it out there. Until next time…
