The Coeymans Firehouse served as both the first and third rest stops on the century ride, and the only rest on the 50 mile route. Here we see century riders Deb Macfarlane and Mark Chudzicki chatting with some 50 milers while Dave Cherubin makes himself a PBJ. | ||||||||||||||||
River Road might not have good pavement, but it was a welcome sight after 100 miles of pedaling. Here is where Dave asked if we should take I-787. I declined, noting that it required going uphill. | ||||||||||||||||
Almost there! Here I (George de Piro) ride down Broadway towards State Street after pedaling over 100 miles. According to my bike computer, it took about 29,000 pedal strokes to get there. Whew! Thanks to Dave for snapping the picture. |

Steve from Delmar won my unending respect by riding 52 miles on his 36-inch unicycle. Read all about Steve's ride in his own words by clicking HERE. | ||||||||||||||||
