    what is the mag shortcut through troy ny?

    can't find the thread, i remember seeing last year that there was a quicker way through/around troy ny. i'm heading from magic down to i-87 and have been taking the standard rt 7 - rt 787 that i get from google. anybody got a way to bypass the lights and crap on rt 7 through troy?

    Goto Brunswick Greens & grab a beer, then backtrack a couple of miles and use 278 to cut over to 2 and go that way. When I lived in Latham that was always the way I would go to bypass Troy when heading to/from VT.

    Every time I've gone through Troy it's taken me longer than going back to 91. I know some people insist it's the way to head back toward CT/NYC, but I've tried it several times and always spent at least 20 extra minutes driving.
