Stone Dust Trail ...

I really liked this section of the Erie Canalway that was stone dust, as on my mountain bike it was really nice riding, quiet, but a soft and smooth pavement, but not so boring. This section between Saint Johnsville and Little Falls was a bit straighter then most, but still a lot of interesting twists, views of the Mohawk River and seperated-from-road made for some interesting, good riding.
