Charles Baker State Forest – Forest Roads mostly, riding around the various landmarks in the forest along the truck trails. Maybe camp at the Elmer Spring Campsite. Also kayak at the Nine Mile Swamp and maybe ride some of the Chenango Canal Trail.
Stoney Pond State Forest – While many of ski trails might be mountain bikable and I’m less likely to do them in favor of smoother rail trails like the Link Trail from Cazenovia to Freber Road, and some of the dirt roads in Tioughnioga Wildlife Management Area. And then the Chenango Canal Trail. Maybe ride around the roads up in Fenner through the Fenner Wind Farm to get a better look at the turbines from the public roads then you can when you are riding.
Old Erie Canal Trailway – Areas from Fayetteville to Chittenango to Canastota are stone dust trails and would be excellent riding. I could camp at Stoney Pond State Forest again, though it’s a bit of a trip north.
Alfred E Woodford State Forest – Janis Road, White Street, and potentially the mountain bike trail up to Tassell Hill with due care could be excellent riding. It is a blue diamond trail (moderate) but on dangerous sections that are rough, I could dismount and walk the bike and carry it over any jumps.
