Harlem Valley Rail Ride Website

The 2012 Harlem Valley Rail Ride will start and finish at the Eddie Collins Field in Millerton, NY.

Routes: (see website) Choose from 25, 50, 75 or 100 mile routes along beautiful, low-traffic country roads, each starting and ending at Eddie Collins Field in Millerton, New York. Within each route, there will be a 4 mile stretch of the car-free Harlem Valley Rail Trail.

Rest Stops: Every 14 miles you’ll find a cheerful oasis! Each rest stop will feature a wide selection of fresh country produce, energy bars and other nourishing snacks. Henceforth, the dictionary definitions of, nutritious, and delicious, will have to be amended, if not wholly rethought.                                

SAG and Bike Repair: Marshals will follow the groups in cars and on bikes. If you need assistance, call the command center number on your cue sheet, and we will be there right away to help.
