30.94 km 101509.09 feet 19.23 mi 11258.00 seconds 187.63 minutes 3.13 hours 6.15 mi/hr

Drove to Mount Morris. Rode this part of the Genesee Valley Greenway with my wife Heather on our tandem for our 30th wedding anniversary vacation. I drove to Rochester and took a taxi back to Mount Morris. We overnighted in Mount Morris. Then on Sunday we bicycled back to Rochester on the GVG. Unfortunately, I can't find, or did take, a GPS track for that part of the trip, so this posting will have to do.

Bicycled the Rochester, Syracuse & Eastern railtrail on my way to the Rochester Airport. It starts in a park in Egypt, NY. Dead ends on the north at the Erie Canal. I think it used to cross, but the trolley line might have continued north along the canal. I didn't notice one way or the other. It dead-ends at a road on the west end. No idea why it doesn't continue. Probably property ownership issues, with a hostile landowner. :( It's a nice trail otherwise; stone dust the whole way.

Rode the railroad portion of the Pittsford Railroad Loop Trail. NOT very well marked! You can see that I had to wander around a while before I found the trailhead. Even then it's just a grass trail with no signage or improvements to speak of.
