Albany, NY to Brattleboro, VT 77.85 miles (with detour) Well the hills finally got me! I was hoping to ride every foot and inch to Boston but to be honest these last hills were just to much. ARE YOU KIDDING ME – I didn’t have any problems today other than I would love...

Then I saw this sign which I thought slightly odd in New York State and am no wiser now as to why it was there. I don’t think there are kangaroos in NY state. Next I saw a big tree which you might ignore most days of the week. When you actually look at it...
