Hello. I wanted to ride out to Piermont market, but my legs arent quite ready for the ride back. What options are there for taking a bike back without riding it? Thanks!

Tappan Zee all day to MetroNorth
Tarrytown or Sleepy Hollow would be the closest MN.
You’ll need to check if they take bikes but coach USA runs the 9 down to GWB from piermont. http://web.coachusa.com/CoachUsaAssets/files/97/route09.pdf
Bring cash and be prepared for no info on delays, coach USA kinda sucks. You may need to call and ask where the stop in piermont is, but I’d guess right along rt9.
You could also ride up to hyacinth or pearl ricer and take the pascack valley train. It’s a one way track so the frequency sucks, so check the timing,
Or as others said head over the TZ. The frequency of those trains is better.
You need to find a current schedule, CoachUSA has seriously downsized since the pandemic.
Ahh thanks good catch. Yea I’d imagine the routes are way fewer
I live in Hartsdale so I ride there or even drive to a location and then do my ride since there are plenty of routes and paved trails in Westchester so I am not missing out on anything by driving there. Like others have said taking the train there or taking the train back makes a lot of sense
Might be nice to continue north a bit, cross the tappen zee bridge and take the train back.
This! I'm not a fan of going both ways, find it way more pleasant to take the train out and ride back.
So much great riding is instantly available to you around NYC once you realize you can take the train places.
Thanks! Will try this.
