Running of the trails
On Sunday, Sept. 29, the private Bedford Riding Lanes trails, six or so miles through the farms, woods and pastures of Bedford, were trotted not by horses but by people in a 10K walk/run. The private trails, formerly equestrian-only, criss-cross 400-plus parcels of private property throughout Bedford, Pound Ridge, Bedford Hills and Katonah. Participants enjoyed the countryside, rustic bridges and scenery.
Pictured left to right in each row: 1. Herbie Calves and Ellen Calves - Supervisor for The Town of Bedford.
