Day 3 Route Recon

21 September 2014 -Two of us rode Day 3 of the 2015 Tour De Chenango route - as a route recon.  It's a tough ride - totaling ~ 73.7 miles and ~ 4200 feet of climbing!  It starts right out climbing the West Hill out of Norwich... all the  climbing is nearly complete at the 40 mile point.  One finding is that there's a bridge crossing the Chenango River around the 44 mile point that has a nice sidewalk on it to use since it is a steel see-through bridge deck that is a little scary riding on.  Beautiful cruise up the Chenango Valley!  Here are some photos from the first 40 miles of the ride.
Riding west on County Route 10 near the 13 mile point.

 On Route 5 just west of McDonough near the 21 mile point.

County Route 2 riding south near the 27 mile point
