Day 44: "A Brochure DAY" (Syracuse to Herkimer, NY)

It was a fantastic morning, sunny and warm, with a nice tailwind out of the west. Ron Rossi, who joined us in Champaign, IL has ridden this section before and gives out a piece of advice: ride easy the next two days because the last two days into Burlington, MA are "ball busters" .....
hmmmm... Peter and I decide it is a great day to take the "local tour", no pushing, just enjoy. We mosey on down the rode and what a great ride it was. Nice country roads, not much traffic, cute little towns along the old Erie Canal. We find a little coffe shop called "Toast" and had some real coffee and homemade biscotti. Spent a good 45 minutes there...unheard of. Continued on and ate lunch at a little local Italian place before heading into the hotel. I think I like this touring mode! We decide this day was a brochure DAY, not just a brochure moment!
Tomorrow we head to Albany, NY but RAIN is in the forecast. We are hoping the weather bubble may kick in!
