I'm on the east side of the city, past the bay. I don't think Rahchacha is all that bad as far as what upstate NY has to offer. I'm not a fan of NY in general, but being that I'm stuck for a while, I can live with it, have for 46 years. some nice riding around the finger lakes area. Virginia is more my liking if I am to stay on the east coast, going west, I have no idea.
