Weekend credit-card tour in NY state this weekend

This will be my first tour since Shake, Rattle & Roll over the summer. It's also my first time riding in NY state.

Saturday, 45 miles:

Take the train to Manhattan, ride north (8th ave or the Greenway). Up through Yonkers, joining up with route 9 up through Sleepy Hollow and Tarrytown. Check into the hotel, ride to my friends' apartment. My wife will meet up with me there where we have dinner planned. Hotel in Hawthorne for the night.

Sunday:

Martha and I have breakfast and she heads home. Local streets up to Peekskill and the Bear Mountain Bridge. 9W up through West Point, then 9W and local roads to the Storm King sculpture park. (Maybe I'll do a picnic in the park?) I'll get home on the train, out of Salisbury Mills (a few miles down the road from Storm King).

Is there anything cool along the way I might be missing out on?
