Route spelled out in prose. Distance from The Boathouse to 110 ST & RSD is 3.0 miles not 1.5. On the return after coming off Tweed onto 9W at mile 31: Route was constructed prior to finish of reconstruction of 9W bridge over Sparkill(Piermont canal). Route assumes you will take detour. Either stay on 9W or take the last right before the bridge and you will stay on cue sheet. Cue sheet revised 5/12/08.

This route does not end in New Brunswick; it ends in Raritan, NJ -- Driving to New Brunswick is not feasible because it is not an out and back. You must take NJ Transit: http://www.njtransit.com/sf/sf_servlet.srv?hdnPageAction=TrainTo

This is a ride past the mansions and roller coaster like roads in Greenwich.

There are no major climbs on this route but expect a lot of rollers.

Bail option at the Bedford Hills Railroad station at mile 56.

Original route routed up Greenwich rather than Stamford and Rt 137, which has become less bike friendly than when this ride was created.

HS 4/8/15
