Tim & I are riding in the Roe Jan Ramble Bike Tour on September 20th in the Hudson Valley towns of Ancram, Copake & Hillsdale, New York & raises funds to support the Harlem Valley Rail Trail (www.hvrt.org).
The trail is a public park managed by New York State Parks Department. It is a paved bicycle/pedestrian path built on the railbed of the old Harlem Line of the New York Central Railroad. It is an ideal public community space for runners, bicyclists, walkers, rollerbladers, cross-county skiers, wheelchair users, hikers & dog walkers - anyone who enjoys combining the quiet beauty of rural landscapes with healthy exercise, in this beautiful part of New York.
I hope you'll support my ride by donating to the Trail!
Thank you!
"Team Rosie"

Roe Jan Ramble Bike Tour
Join us for the 13th anniversary of the Roe Jan Ramble Bike Tour! It's free to all participants and is sponsored by the towns of Copake, Hillsdale and Ancram, NY on the border of Massachusetts in some of the most beautiful scenery of the Hudson Valley & Taconic foothills you've ever seen. While it is free to ride, our event encourages donations for the Harlem Valley Rail Trail. Funds raised will be used to support, connect and expand the public trail to its expected terminus at Chatham, NY.
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.
