TITLE: Central New York Mountain Biking
Author(s): Dick Mansfield
Pages: 176 pages
Price: $ 12.95 @ 20.0% off = $ 10.36
      Features 30 backroad & trail rides. Central New York has dozens of state forests and wildlife management areas that are perfect for mountain bike riding. Many have marked trails and there is a wonderful variety of riding -- enough hills to tire the serious rider, and plenty of smooth shaded dirt roads for the rider looking for a quiet jaunt away from traffic.
      Almost every ride covers areas of the state which were once farmed by early settlers. Much of the poor soil was abandoned during the Depression but the vestiges of their early labors show through the underbrush and the trees. You'll pedal by old stone walls, crumbling cellar holes with ancient lilac trees blooming nearby, and gnarled apple trees that once provided jams and jellies for the hard-working families.
