Getting ready for the Green Mountains

Today we rode 74 miles from Little Falls, NY to Latham, NY.  The route today was more scenic than the last few days.  We had a nice climb out of Little Falls.  Unfortunately, the fog had not burned off yet so I did not get the full picture.  Then we spent about 50 miles on Highway 5S before we started to ride on a bike trail.  I believe it was part of the Erie Canal Trailway that we rode on a few days ago, however this section was paved.  The sun came out and it was a beautiful day. 

This is our last night in New York.  Tomorrow we ride to Vermont.  I am very excited to get to Vermont because I have great friends meeting me there.  I just have to get through 6200 feet of climbing and the downhills.  This will be our hardest day in weeks.  I think our group is ready for the Green Mountains!!!


I think this is still the Erie Canal
