Check Metro North time tables for current train times. Best to start ride on first bike train as you will be spending the better part of 4 hours on trains for this ride. After stop in Salisbury, CT, continue on Rt 41 0.5 mile then BL TRO Rt 41. The next stop is in Copake Falls, NY at The Depot which is on the Harlem Valley Rail Trail. The ascent up Mt Washington Rd is the featured climb. The descent on the other side back into NY State at Bash Bish Falls should be approached cautiously as it is steep and has switchbacks.
