Comments MetroNorth return from Brewster or intervening stations on the Harlem Valley Line. Lunch in N. White Plains (28 mi) or continue on to Armonk (35mi). North of Armonk the route uses backroads through the horse country, riding 6–7 miles on the hardpack between Bedford and N. Salem. Best done as a pre/post-foliage ride in late fall or early spring to see houses and countryside. If the preceding days are very wet the hardpack may prove unrideable.  The alternative roads (172, 22, 35 are heavily trafficked, w/o shoulder). Route can be used  to go (paved) to Mt. Kisco or Bedford Center (Metro North stations) which works out as 45 miles or so.
