Written Directions

Route 21 runs between Pultneyville on Lake Ontario and Andover on Route 417. There are two detours that I'd Recommend. The first is to take Parrish St in Canandagua to West Lake Rd. West Lake will intersect 21 a few miles north of South Bristol. This detour offers up a ride along the shore of Canandagua Lake. The second detour is when 21 and 36 intersect. Take 36 north to Arkport and visit Arkport Cycles. In addition to great people they offer test rides of all the bikes. Even new Harleys. That is service!

Scenery

Great Lakes to rolling hills to open farm land, the route is constantly changing. This route runs most of the width of New York through the Finger Lakes region.

Road Quality

The road is well maintained the whole way. Most of it is in great shape with a few sections of average quality. Not very twisty but nice sweepers.

Roadside Amenities

Several small towns and a small city are on the way. Gas and food are always available. A pleasant stop is Sonnenberg Gardens and Mansion in Canandagua.
