The link worked for me.

By the way... I read the Prospect Park cycling rules and I didn't notice a 15mph speed limit - ?

PP cyclists cs. peds...



I must admit that as a serious cyclist (now sadly exiled from park slope), I was stunned many a time by how rude the cyclists in prospect park were when I was out running. I'm a triathlete and sit on both sides of the usage spectrum and I've almost resorted to violence against one cyclist. I never treat runners the way this guy treated me. I also think he's assocaited with Slope Sports, which made me a permanent Jack Rabbit patron.

The referenced thread is why i don't think CP lap should be closed to traffic all of the time. Having cars in the park reminds regular peds & tourists that it's a road and to treat it like one.

mmm....

Ben, last year I would have strongly disagreed. This year however, I've made much more use of the Park, and I think you have a valid point.
