NJ Road Closures -UPDATE a/o June 8

Submitted by CWaaser on Mon, 06/01/2020 - 4:23pm
  1. N. Woodland from Douglas north is closed,  They were starting the repaving today, 6/1. It will probably be closed a few more days. You CANNOT climb Churchill right now because you can't turn onto Woodland at the top. Woodland is now open and beautifully repaved...and you can climb Churchill, if that's your poison.
  2. The upper end of Hardenburgh (at Anderson) is closed for the rest of this week - they're laying new pipes. Hardenburgh is now open and the road surface is fine - all the work was done on the eastbound (uphill) side and it's been nicely patched.

Part I of 2: Police demonstrate how to use a bicycle

River Road Closed

From Ross Deck onwards. Does anybody know why and whether safe to ignore (i.e. climb over and ride on)?

Thanks, Matthias

The fit studios seem to be closed.  Does anyone know someone good at a bike shop to fit my new pedals, cleats and shoes?  Thanks,

Enjoy the empty streets while they last.

AMAZING News!!

At least for those of us who have been cycling these parts for the last 25 years or so, it's stunning news that today a road crew was milling Hudson Ave. between Piermont Rd. & County Rd. To think it's finally going to be repaved after 25 bone-shaking years!

And FYI, they were also milling North Woodland starting somewhere north of Johnson Ave. (After we'd climbed Churchill, a cop told us to turn around and go up some other way because we couldn't turn onto Woodland. Needless to say I was having none of that; I told him I'd walk on the grass, but I wasn't climbing another hill!)
