Bronx River Trail & Dirt Roads in Bedford, Mt Kisco, Katona

56 miles

Saturday, August 15, 2020

Please Note: This ride is not skinny tire friendly. 38-47mm tires are recommented, and 32mm tires are a minimum for all but the strongest of riders.

Like week two, we start in Inwood, head up the South County, then over to Bronxville. In Bronxville we head up the Bronx River Trail (🎥) – or residential surface streets for groups who don't like curvy trails. Everyone will stop for lunch in Valhalla at the base of the Kensico Dam.

Multi-Surface Riders climb to the top of the Kensico Dam where there's a great view, then head north to the Whippoorwill Club and then over to Armonk. Along the way they go through the Usonia Historic District – a neighborhood planned by Frank Lloyd Wright.

The area north of Armonk is made for gravel bikes. Many of the smaller roads in the area are "dirt" / "gravel" which is precisely the mix of riding that Multi-Surface riders love. They ride on a bunch of gravel roads in Mount Kisco, Bedford, and Katona before taking MetroNorth home from Goldens Bridge.

COVID WARNING: This route requires a MetroNorth return. Please make sure you're comfortable with that before RSVPing.

Miles: 56

Feet Climbing: 3,716
