The quintessential summer sunlit Fred ride. Walk your bike over the Broadway Bridge. Out and back from Central Park. Some hard pack. Optional bailouts: White Plains, Mt Kisco, Ossining, Tarrytown & 225 St.

Cue Sheet 1- 2005 route: The 2005 route turns left at Rt100 climbs up Rt134 then drops down to get over to the dam, loops the reservoir on the north, crosses the pump house Br and them climbs Aqudeuct, descends to climb Pine Bridges rd. A real climbfest, no hardpack.

Cue Sheet 2- 2007 route: The 2007 Pinesbridge route loops the reservoir from rt100 to dam, rides the hardpack on the S shore of the reservoir, climbs Aqueduct descends 134 to climb Pinesbridges rd from bottom. No Pump house br. The map doesn't match either but is close enough.

Note, 5/6/16: report of RWGPS inconsistancies on the Bronx River Bike Path. The path is a work in progress, follow detours.
