Close-in loop: Link to route

Towners-Sherman-Webatuck: Link to route. A nice ride but more traffic than I'd like on CT Rte 37. A fair amount of other bikers.

Fri July 11 2008 - Close-in loop (9 mi / 43 min) *

Just the usual, except being chased by a dog then terrorized by a turkey vulture bursting out of some bushes right by the road as I was zooming downhill.

Beacon, Beekman, Pawling (49.3 miles / 4 hours)

including a stop at Muddycup Coffeehouse in Beacon. Excellent Chocolate Peanut Butter Coffee Shake.

NY82/Dutchess County 8 (Beekman Rd.) is a nicer route than NY 216 and NY 52, but a fair amount of traffic. Beekman Rd. is freshly paved from 82 to the Taconic.
