The Motorcycle Diaries: Day 4

July 19: Bunganut Pond, Alfred, ME to Taconic State Park, Copake Falls, NY




Miles: 265
Time: 8 hours, 45 minutes



After a couple days at the lake I rode this leg with Dad. It rained pretty heavy the second half of the day so riding was a little tough. We toughed it out. Mohawk Mountain on Route 2 was nice bit would have been beautiful and exciting in better weather. Watch out for the hairpin turn outside of North Adams, it's a doozy.

We had pizza for lunch, turns out 14" is too much for two people at lunchtime. The lady with a couple kids who we gave the second half to seemed to appreciate it.

Weather finally let up when we got towards New York, but with the humidity nothing really dried out completely.
