Montreal Sendoff 2024
Description: Join our club members on the first leg of the five-day cycling journey to Montreal! This will be a one-way ride departing Newark City Hall to Cold Spring, NY for just over 60 miles, so you must have the required fitness to complete the ride (feel free to turn off earlier for the ride distance of your choice). After parting ways in Cold Spring, cyclists heading to Montreal will continue for another 10+ miles to the Day 1 destination of Fishkill.
At Cold Spring, Metro-North train service to Grand Central Terminal is available every hour on Sundays (90-min travel time + $15 fare). You will need to transfer to a second train (NJ Transit/PATH) on the West Side of Manhattan to return to New Jersey.
