Return to the Erie Canal Trail (Sept 2023)

Join my buddy, Carl, and I for a 7-day cycling adventure on the Erie Canal Trail. We made our way from Buffalo, via Amtrak, to Albany, then rode back to Buffalo with stops in Amsterdam, Mohawk, Herkimer, Canastota, Pittsford and Medina. This trail is unique in its history and beauty. You can't help but be swallowed up by the context of this canal in the early years of the United States.
