Cool places to go for a day trip?
Hello everyone, Its been a while.
I was thinking of planning a day trip somewhere in the NY area just to get away for a bit. Some place to maybe go hiking and/or mountain biking. Or just to see some cool stuff. I have plenty of free time untill I start working again and I wanted to capitalize on the time I have left.
Do you guys have any suggestions on cool places to visit?

Cooperstown, Lake Placid, Ellicottville, Cuse, and a Cornell football game in your backyard (with required tailgating) Find out when the next game is and we will hold a S2000 tailgate party. Mabey even Skip will come since its not to far to drive. I'll bring the cheese, crackers, & Labatts Select light beer.
