Nice Routes near NYC
Hi. Pickup the 993 this weekend, and want to take it out for a run sunday, (pending salty roads).
Can anyone reccomend any nice runs around New York.
I like Bear Mountain area.
Any routes people have or decent twisty roads light on trafic would be great.
Thanks a lot.

Last Fall we had a pretty big gathering and followed this route. The road and scenery is fantastic. It's a great way to enjoy your new ride. If this is too much, go to Bear Mountain and get on 7 Lakes Drive off the Palisades. No explanation needed after that. Enjoy!
