Also - to answer your other question - yes; I've walked every inch of that Letchworth Branch of the Finger Lakes Trail. It's a lovely hike, but it is loooooong. There are a lot of gullies. By the end (a two-day job for me), my knees were hurting quite a bit.

We look for the more flat/moderate type of hiking & biking trails. Unfortunately my aged 55 year old knees and feet will not allow anything more strenuous.
You have given me some great information! :C

You will love the trails around Canadice and Hemlock Lakes. Flat. Gravel-ly. I don't know if they're approved for biking, however. You'd have to check that NYSDEC site I linked.

Kayaking on Hemlock!

Biking on Canadice

Walking the Genesee Valley Canal trail

We enjoyed the lakes as much as Letchworth State Park! Thanks for the excellent tips! :C
