点评:Adirondack Rail Bike Adventures at Thendera Station (Old Forge) NY
River Run
three miles out / three miles back
Seven rail bikes in our group. Each rail bike had four peddle seat positions.-two in front, two in the rear. The rear right position had a brake squeeze handle.
The rail Bikes are older and seem to be worn out. Our bike had a seat that would not lock in place.
The trip started at the Thendera Adrondack Railroad station. The first two miles were on an uphill grade. The rail bike was difficult to peddle and all four of us had difficult time. This is not for 70 years plus people.. After three miles, the turn around point was reached. The staff turned each rail bike around for the return trip by rotating the bike 180 degrees. The first mile of the return trip was uphill grade and once again the pedaling was difficult The rail bike in front had a chain break, A rail bike behind us had no operating brake. The Rail Bikes have no floor board - only place to put your feet was on the peddles. No place to put your jacket / camera /water bottle etc. No place to put your hands- nothing to hold onto.
The River Run only had two areas where the river could be seen - mostly saw marsh wetlands. The trip was very interesting and if the rail bike had not been worn out We would have enjoyed it.

River Run
出发三英里 / 返回三英里
我们一行有七辆铁路自行车。每辆铁路自行车都有四个踏板座位 - 前面两个,后面两个。右后方有一个刹车挤压手柄。
铁路自行车比较旧,似乎已经磨损了。我们的自行车有一个无法锁定的座位。
旅程从 Thendera Adrondack 火车站开始。前两英里是上坡路。铁路自行车很难骑,我们四个人都很难骑。70 岁以上的人不会这样。三英里之后,到达了转弯点。工作人员将每辆铁路自行车旋转 180 度,以便返程。返程的第一英里是上坡路,再次踩踏板很困难,前面的铁路自行车断了链,后面的铁路自行车没有刹车。铁路自行车没有踏板 - 唯一可以放脚的地方是踏板。没有地方放夹克/相机/水瓶等。没有地方放手 - 没有东西可以抓。
河流之旅只有两个地方可以看到河流 - 大部分是沼泽湿地。这次旅行非常有趣,如果铁路自行车没有磨损,我们会很享受。
