Day 59 Rochester to Weedsport, NY

68.93 miles, 1423 feet. Another day on and off the Erie Canal trail. Actually, the Erie Canal Trail is part of the Empire State Trail. The canal trail often dead ends or becomes part of a roadway. Near towns or villages, the trail is often paved and wide. It then will turn into a crushed stone path and get narrower and then sometimes it becomes a single track dirt trail.

Most of this morning was spent on the trail. After lunch on the village of Clyde, we returned to the road and had over 10 miles of hills. After several days of flat routes, that was work! It has also gotten much warmer. We have really been lucky to have had mostly good weather on this trip. Tomorrow we head to Canastota, home of the boxing hall of fame.Baca lagi
