3/30/13, Dutchess Rail Trail, 23.3mi, 0c, C23.3

First ride of the year, starting off easy on the Dutchess Rail Trail, from Hopewell Junction. Warning -- it's not finished -- dumps you off at Manchester Rd. in Lagrange for now, but will eventually go all the way to the Walkway Over The Hudson which itself connects to a rail trail west of the Hudson. I rode a bit past the current end of the trail to loop around Vassar College.

Peepers and frogs aplenty in the wetlands on the sides of the trail.
