STS3 – Rockland Lake & Nyack - Recap
Saturday, April 30, 2022 - Recap
Some of the best parts of Rockland County…
54 miles (41 🚆 miles)
Saturday, April 30, 2022
In week three everyone heads to Rockland Lake. We start by going up Knickerbocker Road, then go through Old Tappan (which is very quaint 🎥), then we get on the Joseph B Clarke rail trail (🎥) and take that up to Blauvelt. Then up through West Nyack and then to Congers where we'll grab lunch at Steve's Prime Meats and then go over to Rockland Lake to eat.
After lunch riders head south on the Hudson River Geenway which has beautiful views of the Hudson River and the Cuomo Bridge. They then continue south after Nyack, through Piermont, past Market Diner, on a pretty standard 9W ride back to the City.
If you would like to shorten the ride to 41 miles, you can ride from Nyack over the Cuomo Bridge (🎥) and take MetroNorth home from Tarrytown.
(This route includes 1.5 miles on pristine gravel which IS skinny tire friendly 🎥).
[Please note: this route is very similar to week 1's 57 mile ride. If you want a similar mileage ride you can also ride the 83 mile route and return via NJ Transit from Emerson – that would be 60 miles.]
