Spring Training Series - Ride 6 - Recap
Saturday, May 18, 2019 - Recap
Westchester County Trails
35 - 75 Miles
Saturday, May 18, 2019
To conclude the Spring Training Series 2019, we will ride the South and North County Trails up to Westchester and have a picnic at the Briarcliff Library. After the picnic, you can return by train from Pleasantville to Grand Central, start your way back to the city by bike, or continue further north to the New Croton reservior and then return to the city by bike. These are beautiful rides!
The gravel option overlaps with the 74 mile road option going north, but does not overlap going south. This gravel ride is NOT skinny tire friendly. 32+mm tires are strongly recommended.
Ride 6R – Road Option 33 miles – Train from Pleasantville, (On Ride With GPS, look for STS19-6R.) https://ridewithgps.com/routes/27653673
Ride 6R – Road Option 60 miles – turnaround at Briarcliff Library, (On Ride With GPS, look for STS19-6R.) https://ridewithgps.com/routes/27653661
Ride 6R – Road Option 74 miles – turnaround at New Croton reservoir, (On Ride With GPS, look for STS19-6R.) https://ridewithgps.com/routes/27653791
Ride 6G – Gravel Option 75 miles – turnaround at New Croton reservoir, (On Ride With GPS, look for STS19-6G.) https://ridewithgps.com/routes/29523399
The Harlem Line train from Pleasantville to Grand Central will take just over one hour and cost in the range of $7-12 one way. Make sure to check online for schedule information, fares, etc. as service can change due to construction, particularly so on the weekends.
Remember your MetroNorth / LIRR bike pass if you have one. You can buy one for $5 at ticket booths, onboard trains and by mail. Only some Grand Central windows sell them. You cannot buy online. We recommend that you not board the train without the pass because you may potentially receive a high fine. For more information and some useful tips about bringing your bike on the trian see http://web.mta.info/bike/.
PLEASE NOTE: Start times of Spring Training Series rides will change depending on ride distance and weather.
