TITLE: Central New York Mountain Biking[Add to Cart]
[View Cart]
Author(s): Dick Mansfield
Pages: 176 pages
Price: $ 12.95 @ 20.0% off = $ 10.36
Features 30 backroad & trail rides. Central New York has dozens of
state forests and wildlife management areas that are perfect for
mountain bike riding. Many have marked trails and there is a wonderful
variety of riding -- enough hills to tire the serious rider, and plenty
of smooth shaded dirt roads for the rider looking for a quiet jaunt
away from traffic.
Almost every ride covers areas of the state which were once farmed by
early settlers. Much of the poor soil was abandoned during the
Depression but the vestiges of their early labors show through the
underbrush and the trees. You'll pedal by old stone walls, crumbling
cellar holes with ancient lilac trees blooming nearby, and gnarled
apple trees that once provided jams and jellies for the hard-working
families.
