Ithaca is the unshaven armpit of the fingerlakes.

Spending 5 years there was about 4.9 years too many.

Be nice. Ithaca is actually a cool place.
I heart Ithaca and the 4 years I spent there (minus the bi-polar weather that is).

It's sad to go back and see a Wal-mart/Lowes...one big box chain after another and a Starbucks in the commons. What would the hippies say? Where's the peaceful protest, man?

Sad to hear. I enjoy myself there. Yes it is kind of funky. But I can get great beer, good asian food, and good live music there. Something I can't get as easily in Rochester. I like it there.

Damn. Double booked Saturday and Sunday. Riding will have to be in the first half of the day only.
Sounds like a killer loop though. Have fun.

Yes, I often confuse Ithaca with the PNW :rolleyes:
If Ithaca was in Washington state Skooks would go there and rock the house. I just know it.... Hey it rains a lot there, they have a lot of coffee shops, it's hilly, they got good beer, a large asian population, bad drivers, and lots of water close by. Only thing missing is mountains and good seafood. Could happen if you weren't so jaded.... By the way Peace cafe is in collegetown on College ave I think.
