THE ANNUAL GRAN FONDO ROLLS THROUGH ROCKLAND

BY TOM MCGUIRE

The Gran Fondo bike race graced Rockland County with its presence again this Sunday. Many roads were closed to cater to the event, but the endurance of participants was admired by all.

The New York leg of Gran Fondo is a 100-mile route from NYC to Bear Mountain. It is also the GFNY Championship. The 50-mile GFNY Bear on the same day is a non-competitive ride from NYC to Bear Mountain.
