    I sure wasn't complaining! Hope it didn't appear that way lol. I was happy to get my first day skiing this season during the month of November. Remarkable since I was riding my bike in t-shirt and shorts a couple of weeks ago... About to head out on my bike now! SPP

    Fahnestock Gravel: 10/12/24 Ancient Paths to Modern Roads

    I've done some riding on Indian Brook, Sunken Mine, Old Albany Post Road, etc. back when I lived in Northern Westchester. Great dirt roads and plenty of climbing. Thanks for bringing back some fine memories. SPP
