Lucky Buck
As I was leaving Henry Hudson Dr this morning (about noonish) after a very peaceful ride, a buck goes flying past me, onto the sidewalk/bikepath up to the bridge. I have never prayed so hard in my life...the cars were flying up and down River Rd, and if he couldn't get back to the woods he was doomed. I stopped two other cyclists from proceeding, so as not to spook him. He was body-slamming the fence, trying to knock it down. Thank God, he squeezed himself through the gate and made it back into the woods, restoring my faith that sometimes there is a happy ending. Had it gone the other way, it would have devastated the other riders, myself, and a number of construction workers who stopped what they were doing to watch the scene unfold.
Bear ride Friday
Any idea what stores might be open between the G.W. and Bear on Friday. Planning on doing a ride. I already know the Tompkins cove deli will be closed.

A friend of mine just sent this to me. It is a brilliant idea, maybe New York could think about this alternative.!!
