Yup, it depends on which side of the road you're on. @S_jenks, Plattsburgh is a classic Interstate city, an international trade zone, a college town and an Air Force Base town, primarily though it's an Upstate city at it's core. The lakefront potential is typically underutilized and full of unrealized potential and their access to the North Country outdoors is similarly underexploited.
Plattsburgh is where I was born- even though my family is from (and eventually returned to) the capitol district. The Plattsburgh area has also been the scene of some mayhem recently.

Ausable Chasm is otherwise a cool place to visit.

Sorry about the clickbait aspect but, really, Buffalo is #1 in the country for single women? https://q1057.com/upstate-new-york-t...in-the-nation/
Meanwhile in Buffalo back on St Paddy's day: https://www.newyorkupstate.com/news/...ay-parade.html

A fucking SWAT team?
Irresponsible assault rifle users...
now that's a bunch of bs if I ever heard it. a heavy gust of wind wouldn't blow a match barrel rifle off a roof [presumably with a parapet]. at least without the gust taking said sniper with it.Quote:

... now back to the sad reality that even german engineering can't compete with upstate winters:

Seriously, who wrote this piece of shit? Tell me you’ve never been to Chicago, Atlanta, New York, LA, Miami without telling me to you’ve never been to Chicago, Atlanta, New York, LA or Miami.

You see, that’s what I mean. Tarpitecture is next level.Quote:

Looks like I'll be back in the upstates end of April if anyone wants Dinosaur or something in da 'Cuse.
Actually, I could use help, I'm looking to rent a nice road bike, can't really find any stores that rent a real bike, either Mt. Or Road. I'll try and hit up some mechanics, but if any of you know anyone. Medium/54cm. Maybe $125 for a few days?
Check with Jeremy at Resource.
So not sure if this had anyone participate on April 1. Any rate it would have been a cold and probably wet outing this early in the spring:
