My primary summer transportation is a Cannondale touring bicycle. My car died in April and I decided to live without it for a while. <br /> <br />I'll take the train if time & location permit. Amtrak stops once a day about 60 miles from here so it's not really convenient. The Trailways bus stops in Saranac Lake, about 6 miles from here and in Lake Placid, so if I need to leave town, that's generally how I go. But if the trip is under a hundred miles, I usually bike it. <br /> <br />Once in a while, I load the bike with camping gear & set out. It often involves an Amtrak ride, a Lake Champlain Ferry and lots of peddling. Next week may be a 200 mile ride to my daughter's house south of Albany & a lesiurely Amtrak ride back north along Lake Champlain. (Then the 60 mile bike ride home.) <br /> <br />Wayne
