Forums cleanup: Please help

Submitted by rfay on Sun, 2009-09-20 15:20

We need a little help cleaning up the forums. Sometimes people post there and old, obsolete things about ancient tours remains.

If you are reading in the forum and come across an item that is out of date, irrelevant, or generally obsolete, please click the little link below it that says "mark obsolete". We'll delete it and we can have a less-cluttered site.

Thanks!

Touring Notes - Your tours, planned tours, looking for riders

Hello! I am doing a coast to coast in the USA. I am now about two weeks in advance on the schedule.
Any idea on how to stretch the ride from Niagara to New York of about 500/1000 miles so that I can use the days I have left cycling around?
Thanks for your help!

There's plenty of great

There's plenty of great cycling in New York State.

My first choice would be the Finger Lakes region. Ten lakes gouged out of the bedrock by the glaciers, run roughly parallel to one another. Each has its own character. Plenty of small towns, always one at each end of a lake. It's New York's wine country too, so if that's your fancy, you could spend months on wine tastings and tours.

You may want to follow the shore of Lake Ontario up to the 1,000 Islands. From there you could take a ferry to Kingston Ontario. (Bikes aren't allowed on the 1,000 Islands bridges.) Or, head east along the St. Lawrence, before heading south to NYC, possibly detouring through Vermont. A variation of that will take in the Adirondack mountains.

Hope this helps!
