I'm doing this 50 mile ride Saturday to help publicize and support the Harlem Valley Rail trail. It begins at the Wassaic Metro North station, the end of the MTA Harlem line from NYC.
When completed, the Harlem Valley Rail Trail will be 46 miles long, stretching between Wassaic NY and Chatham NY. Your generous donation will help build the long anticipated section between Copake and Hillsdale.
I hope you will support completion of the rail trail, and will come up to Columbia County to ride it with me.

All participants have the option of raising money for the Harlem Valley Rail Trail to help extend the rail trail through the Roe Jan area.
The Roe Jan Ramble Bike Tour is sponsored by the Towns of Copake, Hillsdale, and Ancram, New York. This free public event raises funds to support the Harlem Valley Rail Trail Association. The Harlem Valley Rail Trail Association (HVRTA) was founded in 1986 and incorporated in 1995 as a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization dedicated to advocating for completion of the rail trail in Dutchess & Columbia Counties, New York. HVRTA’s core mission includes partnering with public and private agencies, leading volunteer efforts to assist with trail maintenance, raising capital for purchasing rights-of-way, and offering trail design expertise to public and private agencies.
