Hey guys, been doing some searching and can't seem to find this info and this site still runs pretty slow.  I'm pretty sure I found this info in here several months back but I'm not sure.  I'm contemplating doing Gran Fondo NY and I'm trying to get a feel for what to expect on some of the climbs.  I've never been to BEar Mtn  but i've ridden palisades park up to the Alpine Police station.  Does anyone have the grade and length of that climb so I can reference against that?  

Thanks

Hi all,

I'm Looking for a bike for my 5'4" fiancee. Seems like a 50-52cm bike is the way to go. If anyone is selling something that might fit, let me know. Thanks!

  A female cyclist was arrested around 6:00pm today after allegedly running a red light.  As a disclaimer, I arrived as she was being arrested so what I describe below is mostly what learned from other people.

Caught Between Sidewalk And Street

Three cyclists from two local racing clubs, defiant and ready to take a stand, rolled into Central Park near 110th Street, and were promptly arrested. It was a summer morning in 1881, and bicycles were not permitted in the city’s vast park.
