Met those who showed-up for the ride today over in Central Park.  While
talking to Andy afterwards decided to see how much interest there is for a
ride over the full length of the Putnan/North Westchester/South
Westchester/Hudson Greenway paths?  It is about 65~70 miles, mostly flat
(slightly downhill overall), a few short uphills, and car free except for
about 2~3 miles or so.   The start would be Grand Central station in midtown
Manhattan.  Take the train to Brewster NY, ride a couple of miles, then take
the paths back to NYC.

I might do it next weekend.  Anyone else interested?

Joao,

Is there a length restriction for bikes on Metro North trains?

I recall there is a maximum length allowed.

I have a Gold Rush LWB which might exceed their limits.
