Great Finger Lakes Bicycle Tour, June 8-10, 2012
On Friday, June 8, Jane and I drove to Watkins Glen State Park, Hidden Valley Group Camp, to participate in the Great Finger Lakes Bicycle Tour. The tour is put on by the Southern Tier Bicycle Club based in Binghamton, New York.
Arrival is on Friday afternoon; camping is in tents or cabins. The club provides catered dinners Friday and Saturday evenings and breakfasts Saturday and Sunday mornings.
There is a short ride Friday night, an array of routes on Saturday, and several routes on Sunday. There are both road and off-road routes. There are guided hikes of the gorge and post ride activities such as a hooping contest and a bonfire.
Interactive maps of my Saturday ride and my Sunday ride are on ridewithgps.com.
