Extend courtesy to all trail users and respect their rights.
Be aware when crossing at intersections. With the absence
of motor vehicles on the trails, do not become lulled into a
false sense of security.
Let others know when you are about to pass them. Use a bell,
horn, or politely announce "passing on your left."
Use extra caution when crossing roadways and when climbing
or descending hills.
g
g
Always travel in the appropriate direction. Walk left, ride right.
g
Obey all posted rules and regulations.
Respect the trails and the private property that borders them.
Carry out anything carried in. Please use trash receptacles
where provided.

Exercise trails, outdoor sculptures, and experimental rice
fields are all evidence of the renewed interest in the
Hudson River. The Erastus Corning Riverfront Preserve,
the award winning riverfront attraction, terminates the
southerly end of the trail. The Preserve is accessible from
many points, including the Hudson River Way Pedestrian
Bridge and the Quay Street underpass at the base of
Broadway in Albany and the Dunn Memorial Bridge
pedestrian walkway from Rensselaer.

From the Menands area south to the City of Albany, you can
explore the lagoons, open fields, and stands of old poplar
trees along the floodplain of the Hudson River. Here the
water rises and falls with the tide and a small sandy beach
can be found with unspoiled views of the river's edge.

The Cohoes section, the Uncle Sam Trail, and the Hudson
River section all meet at the Green Island Bridge. The trail
follows local streets in this area. Take time to visit some of
the many small neighborhood stores or travel to downtown
Troy and visit the Troy Riverfront Park immediately south of
the Green Island Bridge or the RiverSpark Visitor's Center
at 251 River St.

For those trail users interested in a tour of the river
communities that developed around the labor and
industry movements of the turn of the century,
follow the local streets to the Uncle Sam Trail. The
scenic approach at the northerly end is through
Van Schaick Island on Ontario Street, then Peebles
Island and Waterford to Lansingburgh on the TroyWaterford Bridge, site of one of the first bridges to
cross the Hudson River. From the south, follow the
bike trail signs across the Green Island Bridge.
The Uncle Sam Trail follows an old railroad that is
tucked into the side of the hill overlooking Troy.

If it were not for a few vantage points along the trail overlooking
the City of Cohoes, you would be unaware of traveling through
the river city at the confluence of the Mohawk and Hudson
Rivers. Side trips to the historic mills, Cohoes Falls overlook,
and other historic sites are enjoyable and educational.

MAKING
THE TRANSITION TO TRAFFIC
K
After gaining confidence in your bicycle handling skills on the trail, follow
these
recommendations to safely and efficiently ride with traffic:
YC
HU
K
SQ
g
g
Be predictable- always ride in the same direction as traffic. Motorists will not
expect the bicyclist riding on the wrong side of the roadway.
Be visible- wear bright clothing and a helmet. Let motorists know that you
are a part of traffic by riding your bicycle where you can be seen and making
your intentions known to motorists.
g
Be alert- do not assume that you have the right of way. Make eye contact with
motorists at intersections.
g
Obey traffic laws- in order to expect motorists to share the road with bicyclists,
you must gain their respect by obeying traffic laws.
Additional information on traffic laws regarding bicyclists and pedestrians are available from the NYS Governor's Traffic Safety Committee: www.nysgtsc.state.ny.us
