From Bard it’s off along the backroads, past mansions, cornfields, mysterious old houses, farm land, views of the Catskills...

Glen here, your bike ride tour director and humble servant since 1997.

We are off on a swell day of bicycle riding.

We’ll start (and finish) at Bard College, located near NYC, Westchester, CT, and Albany, in the town of Annandale-on-Hudson.  (Yes, THAT Annandale!)

We provide superb support so you can have a fun day in the country -- the best rest stops, a fully-marked route, S.A.G. (bicycle rescue) service, free post-ride massage, free all-you-can-eat post-ride meal...

The free all-you-can-eat post-ride meal. There seems to be some minor confusion between these guys about if it's breakfast time or lunch time...

While we are always proud to donate to local charities along the bike route, there is NO fundraising required for this ride.
