Route follows Fred's Old Indian till Poughkeepsie.

Bail out in Poughkeepsie at mile 23 or Pawling at mile 48.

Please note that trains run at Pawling every other hour, check schedule.

The author's original route goes south towards Brewster on Farm to Market Rd, then west on Rt 312 and Rt 6. I have re-routed these as the latter roads are not very bike friendly. The RWGPS route goes west on Rt 311 then gets to Gipsy Trail via Rt 52. Barrett Hill Rd, Horsepound Rd and Nichols Rd.
