Threading the Needle
So we are in Rochester, NY right now and will tomorrow be leaving the comfortable Adventure Cycling Maps. We will follow the Erie Canal through the magic pass of NY State - check out the picture below for the surprising valley through upstate NY.
Afterwards, we will probably head straight for RI, but I'm just not sure right now.
I have recently been working on a bike route that is themed after early American Industry and travels the C and O Canal, the Great Allegheney Passage, up to the Erie Canal, down the Hudson river valley, and back to DC. I call it the NationBuilders Route (google maps link). Having ridden about 70% of it personally, I can say it would be a nice trip. See blog post for more.
