Yup, whatya know. Main St is at and alt of 1830. Mid station lodge is 1807. Google earth says so!

thats so odd.....
but it must be true..

Ride you bike back from whiteface and you wont think it so odd. Its all uphill.

Smokey the Bear on the gondola line and midstation lodge are both at about 2000' as per the GPS. If you look at the ORDA web cams Mount VanHo has the same coverage as mid station because that's at 2100'. The base lodge is lower that town but not by much.

Hi TJ,

I've made that trip and you are right. Going through The Notch is a bit scary when there is traffic. The road is very narrow there. “Bicyclers” know what I mean. Four and more wheelers please be courteous and slow down for those out the on two wheels.

It’s almost time to switch from two wheels on the roads to wheels on the trainer and, “two boards” on The Mountain above The Notch.

Gave up on Biking back in September. I think I have done one ride. I just dont pay attention to the traffic behind me. It it hit me I wont rmemebr it anyways.

Been running since the 13th of sept. How do I remember that date. ITs the date I gave up smoking, cigarettes that is.

It's also the day I was married on many years ago and it was on a Friday. It only lasted 23 years though so there maybe something to Friday the 13th.

I haven't biked much this year either. Used to do 1000/mpy but no more. I used to run also but wore out the cartilage in my knees and my Orthopedic Doc. says no more running. He is a skier and okayed that but recommended staying out of the bumps. I try but they can't always be avoided.

Congratulations on quitting smoking. I quit for about 12 years, went back and quit gain for the past 15. I have no urge to smoke any more at all. It will happen. It's easier to give up drinking than smoking but let’s not get carried away here.
