Graham Hills Park in Pleasantville is drawing mountain bikers from across the Hudson Valley with its scenic trails and jump park.
Stefan Pappalardo, owner of Ride of Pleasantville, says the park caters to all skill levels and offers terrain comparable to professional biking resorts.
The site was once a train stop on the Putnam Valley Railway and has allowed mountain biking since the early 1990s.
Riders can choose from easy to advanced jump lines, and the park supports everything from entry-level bikes to high-end rigs.
