Kind of a slog on a mtn bike, but it will get you there.
You could use this to do a loop on a road bike:
at mile 8.4 take a right onto East Shore Rd, taking you up the eastern side of Greenwood Lake
follow to Rt 17A and take a right over Hogback,
Pick up Long Meadow Road on the right before Rt 17 and follow south back to Sterling Mine Rd.
Otherwise, remember that you still have 10.5 miles to go to catch the train home at Sloatsburg after mtn biking.
