The Cat's Tail Ride

25 mi./ 45 min.
Durham Valley Scenic Byway

This 25-mile ride is Greene County’s newest motorcycle route. Created by the founders of the Hudson Valley Biker Network, Eddie Ramirez and Ray Zarcone, this out-and-back ride leaves from Blackthorne Resort in East Durham and travels for 25 miles along routes 10 and 20, connecting to Cornwallville and Cunningham roads. The route curves a bit like the end of a cat’s tail, according to Zarcone. For stunning vistas and smooth roads, this one is the cat’s tail and pajamas!

Breathtaking views and smooth roads
