Rochester Trails—Essex Park Loop: 14.11 miles
Comments: Ride Time was 1 hour 19 minutes, average speed: 10.6
While expanding my riding knowledge of the bike paths in Rochester, I stumbled on a beautiful bike trail through Essex Park on the Northwest side of town. My average speed suffered as I explored this new loop which finally brought me back to Med-City. I was able to bike mostly trails until near the end of my journey when I found myself downtown near Mayo and was planning on exiting the trails closer to the Barlow Plaza. I completed my ride by joining the vehicle traffic on the roads. No honkers tonight! The wind was slight and temps were in the 80’s—slightly warm for this time of year but who’s complaining?
