Starts at Friend's Park, Salt Point Turnpike, just east of the Taconic State Parkway . It's only 40 miles, but this is a consistently hilly ride through the most scenic parts of Dutchess County . The hills include all of Hunns Lake , Maghee Hill (the hard way), Silver Mountain Road , Bulls Head, Haight Hill. There's a store 5 miles from the start/finish, so bring food and fluids or buy it there. No complaining allowed on this ride. You are forewarned.
