I'm looking at riding the Erie canal(early October) and then Lake Champlain (mid October. Any comments about what the weather will be like would be appreciated.

Should be a good time to ride with some precautions. I would plan for mild fall temps during the day and much cooler at night. Definitely could rain so expect that. Unexpected cold snaps could happen so bring the right clothing just in case.

By October, the days will be much shorter to make camp or town. A bike light would be useful if you get caught out short of your destination for the night. Good luck.
