Just did 2 days in the Mohawk Valley of NY, between Fonda and Little Falls. Over 700 miles, great roads (rt167 south of Little Falls) killer views (top of the hills outside of Cherry Valley) and a "glimpse" of a simpler life in the Stone Arabia area. Few cars and the roads are in great shape.
 
mention rt10 from Pine Lake to Lake Plseco bumble_bee1098?

First pic is my riding route to the dealer. ~80 miles Second pic is my riding route home from the dealer. ~65 miles. I could take the highway which ends up being half the travel time but that's no fun.

Third pic is my riding route to Sonic Drive-in in upstate NY. 115 miles long. Fourth pic is my riding route home. 90 miles. Naturally, because these images are zoomed out, you can not grasp how twisty these roads are and some include "Laguna Seca Corkscrew-like" elevation changes. Nasty stuff.
 
I've never rode up that far? worth the trip? how far are you from the NY border I see you live in VT. We should get together and ride one of these weekends! I was over in VT last weekend (I don't really know my way around VT very well, just a few places, like I love snowboarding killington MT) I was over past arlington VT..
 
Probably not worth posting maps of rides in the Adelaide Hills, when so many of you aren't here! I actually brought up Google Maps then couldn't decide which was my favourite. Suffice to say we are spoilt for choice here, and only 10 mins. away from suburban living. The envy of other Australian capitals, with the hills on two sides of the city (east and south), and Adelaide being smaller than capitals on the eastern seaboard. Adelaide produces a disproportionate number of good roadracers for its small population (about 1 million)... Rides to the north find you in one of the best wine-growing regions of the world! I came from Sydney originally, and could not believe the choice and accessibility of top-class rides when I got here.
 
I used to go to school this way, but this is long before I had a duc; I used to run these roads on my '82 seca turbo.
