Mid-Hudson Bicycle Club

This ride is relentlessly hilly with several significant climbs--a real challenge. We'll take "Fall Hill" up into Columbia County, north of Pine Plains before loopiing back on roads named Pooles Hill, Stissing Mtn, Hicks Hill, and Shelley Hill. These rides are led at a slow B or B- pace--faster riders are welcome, though. Bring legal lights just in case we finish late. Heavy rain cancels--call the night before if you're not sure. Start: Park & Ride at Bulls Head Rd just off the Taconic State Parkway. Contact: Paula Ward 868-1046.
