RIDE RATING

Each day averages approximately 47 miles (rides range from 33-59 miles) with varying levels of elevation gain. On higher mileage days, van shuttles will be available. While we have included many bike paths on our route, when entering and leaving towns, expect standard urban conditions. Out of towners and locals alike will enjoy exploring the many routes within the Hudson Valley.
