I headed south for a 46-mile Saturday run. Thought I'd take some pics of the roads around here, which are really pretty decent. We have lots of hills, but nothing too long. Steep, though. With all the snow melting, there's water running all over the place.
Old School photographers might find this interesting. It's in the Town of Waterville, NY, about 12 miles from my house.
Pitt stop in the state forest near Brookfield.
This is how I start most of my rides--5.5 miles all uphill until I get to this point. I live down in the valley and this is the part of the Adirondack foothills surrounding it. It's a slog, but it makes the rest of my rides seem easier, and I've always got a 5+ mile downhill run at the end.
Just before the descent into Brookfield. The shoulders this time of year are full of road salt and sand from the winter. It washes clean before long.
Always a relief to see this sign in front of one of the more prosperous dairy farms around here--even for an atheist like me.
