Last Sunday was another beautiful day for a short ride. Not a cloud in the sky and temps were up into the 60's, so just needed to pick a direction to go. I decided to head out to the East and ride towards Hancock, Mass, then follow Rt43 north to the intersection with Rt 7. Originally I was thinking I might ride up Mt Greylock but I decided to wait for a warmer day for that climb. It's not super high but the temps do drop as you climb.
I continued south on Rt 7 into Pittsfield MA, where I picked up Rt 20 heading west back into NY. Traffic was pretty light in most stretches and there were a good number of motorcycles out along the way as we get into warmer weather. When you have to start to mow the lawn around here, the chances of seeing more snow are mostly done for the season.
It was an easy ride and most of the (not NY) roads were in great shape. Overall a nice couple hours and about a 100+ mile loop.
