Day 2 Lockport to Holley

-




Today’s ride definitely put me in a New York State of mind.  Rolled past apple orchards, vineyards and a waterfall!





The trail is crushed gravel, flat and gorgeous with wild flowers dotting the bank of the canal. The weather was perfect, 65 and sunny.

. 

The ride today was almost all on the trail, but when it crossed a street, cars actually stopped to let bicyclists pass.  It confused me the first time, couldn’t tell why these guys were waving at me. Another thing, in the Empire State they don’t draw bridges; they lift them.  Check out this video.  


Had dinner tonight with two canoeists I met this morning at the Lockport days festival where we were admiring this 1959 Caddy, which has the largest fins, ever, according to the owner.

I beat them here, but not by much.  Today’s ride was about 40 miles.  The Relive video omits the middle part.  Apparently I am not trainable in the resume button.
