Day 56 Newcomb NY to Rochester VT

Today we set of for the last five days of our Ride Across America. Newcomb is in the center of the Adirondak Mountains and Adirondak State Park...one of America's biggest parks. It is really beautiful.
Before the end of the week we will cross the Green Mountains and the White Mountains.

A nice clear day turned into a wet rainey one. Only the third we've had. (Notice the shower cap on my helmut). It was raining when we crossed the Ticonderoga River. It was raining when we crossed into Vermont. It was raining when we climbed Brandon Gap.

Distance: 92 miles
Time in the saddle: 6:30
Climb: 6684 ft

Total Distance: 3777 miles
Total Climbed: 109512 ft (20 miles)
