At mile 18.4 a good rest stop: Duncan Doughtnuts.

At mile 25.1 (Kensico Dam) a good rest stop.

Lunch stop across from Mt Kisco train station (several choices).

Metro North bailouts at Mt. Kisco, Valhalla, White Plains, and Scarsdale. Subway bailout at mile 69 (#4) or at mile 71.1 (#1).

This ride can be shorted to 70 miles by starting at last stop of #4 train (mile 9.9) or to 58 miles starting and ending at last stop of #4 train.

Includes bike path section up from White Plains to the Kensico Dam Plaza.

Stan Oldak was a much loved Past President of the NYCC.
