I do it just about every weekend,My camp in the ADK

We have a cabin in Old Forge. Last year we did a nice loop, it was a all day event. We went north up to the canadian border then turned south west towards tug hill then back around to old forge. It was a great ride. Make sure you do it in the middle of the week though. I'll have dig out a trial map and see if I can remember the route.
