Sortie rapide à vélo de Brighton à Rochester

Set off from the leafy neighborhoods of Brighton, known for its quiet, bike-friendly streets just southeast of Rochester, NY. This route is a gentle ride, perfect if you want to enjoy suburban scenery before heading into the heart of the city.

You’ll cruise mostly along quiet roads, giving you a relaxed pace with only a couple of short stretches on busier streets. The ride covers roughly 10.6 km (about 6.5 miles), so it won’t take too long, and the elevation is mild—a touch of climbing, mostly smooth rolling terrain.

Much of the journey is on asphalt or paved surfaces, but keep your eyes out for some sections where the surface is unspecified—nothing too gnarly, just something to keep you alert. As you approach Rochester, watch the city skyline come into view! Rochester itself is packed with history, world-class museums, and—if time permits—perfect spots to grab a fresh coffee or pastry before you head back.
