Hi, everyone.
I'm organizing a bike tour in conjunction with the Green Building
Open House (GBOH) tour. If you're interested, meet us tomorrow
morning at Greenstar between 8 and 8:15am or at Falls Restaurant &
Tavern in Trumansburg between 10 and 10:15am.
For info on the GBOH including links to a guide and map, go here:

greenbuildings/tour.htm
My proposed bike loop visits the first 7 houses in that guide.
The full bike loop is 40 miles at a moderate pace and it assumes
about a half hour rest per home plus a half hour between legs for
breakfast and lunch. You can do just part of it. For example, a
couple people might meet up in Trumansburg and bike only the
Trumansburg loop. Details below. Link to a google map at the
bottom. For those that have seen my postings earlier in the week,
the details and route have been slightly updated below.
Leg 1 - Breakfast Ride - 8am - 13 miles
- Gather at Greenstar
- Head out on a beautiful lakeside bike ride along 89 to Taughannock
- Then up to Trumansburg for breakfast at Falls Restaurant & Tavern
(214 East Main Street) in Trumansburg
Leg 2 - Trumansburg Loop - 10am - 15 miles
- meet in Trumansburg (for breakfast) at Falls Restaurant & Tavern
(214 East Main Street) in Trumansburg
- to house #1 (2.9 miles)
- to house #2 (3.9 miles)
- to house #3 (2.8 miles)
- to house #4 (4.9 miles) ...lunch
- those doing only this loop can ride back to Trumansburg town
center (7 miles)
Leg 3 - Return to Ithaca - 2pm - 12 miles
- meet at house #4 (lunch)
- to house #5 (4.1 miles)
- to house #6 (3.2 miles)
- to house #7 (0.1 miles)

Contact me directly by email or at 607-592-2222 if you'd like to
join... or just show up.
Thanks!
