Pedal from Providence RI to Ithaca, NY Oct27-Oct29 2004

Suggestions based on your experiences? I plan to simply stay in
hotels along the way. I plan to leave Oct27 and Arrive Oct29.

One rte i am considering is to roughly follow Rte44 across CT, cross
the Hudson at Kingston NY, take rte 28 thru the Catskills, then thru
Oneonta-Greene- Whitney Point- Ithaca.

I usually drive to Ithaca via Mass Pike to NYS Thruway then South, or
via I-84 to Rte 17. trying to split the difference.

Will probably use my cyclocross bike to account for unpredictable
weather and terrain. Hope to avg 12mph x 10hrs x 3days

Thanks!
