Day 42 - Geneseo to Seneca Falls

Glorious morning; sun bright, skies clear, crisp, and empty back roads to Avon / Rte 20. Perfecto!!

Legs feeling sluggish after Saturday's hills. The cure - breakfast at hotel; re-fuel at Patty's Place in Canandaigua; re-re-fuel at Water Street Cafe in Geneva. After the third morning meal it was a very gradual up and down to Seneca Falls. Both cafes were great.

Really nice towns to ride thru - quaint; lots of nicely kept / restored old homes - Avon, Bloomfield, Lima, Canandaigua. Pavement good; wide shoulders

Another great area for an outdoor vacation - camping, boating, bike-riding and more.

After the Patty's Place stop the legs started to come back - bit still tired at end of day. Should be back on track tomorrow.

Seneca Falls has the Cayuga - Seneca Canal running thru town - seems they could exploit it for tourism a lot more than they do.

Rode most of the day on Rte 20; all day tomorrow on Rte 20; some the next day. Good road conditions; pretty views. But it gets a little monotonous being on one road all day.
