Ride starts and ends at Dinosaur Playground on Riverside Dr. at W. 97th St.

This is a standard "easier" version of the hilly Nyack ride - shorter and less hilly, but does go over Bradley.  Lunch in Piermont (or Nyack, if you wish), with a return up 9W.

Great route to Kensico Dam. Lunch at Kensico Dam Plaza. Optional route onto Bronx River Parkway if it happens to be closed to cars at time of ride (Sundays May - Oct). Optional bailouts on Metro North White Plains and stations south, bring a Metro North Bike Path if in doubt of full length of ride. If you take Metro North to or from White Plains you can cut this ride in half, easily a C ride.

RWGPS route and cue sheet re-routed off Grand Concourse to the more bike friendly Goulden.
