During my ride to Piermont yesterday,  I did some hand-held I-Phone work—video (mainly) and a few stills and cut together a short 3 minute video of what nature was up to between the bridge and Bunbury’s yesterday.  I’ve posted it here:  https://vimeo.com/144681357   Solo piano piece composed and played by Canadian David Kidd.  

This is in further celebration of this year’s special fall colors, and earlier posts recognizing it by Hank and Richard—the latter with Jerry’s terrific video of River Road which, if you haven’t seen, I strongly recommend.    

i need to upgrade my wheels and would like to work with a local wheel builder instead of one of the shops in the UWS.  Any recommendations will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Eric

Work off all that food by joining Marilyn and Ken on our 22nd annual climb over Diamond Mountain, an easy Harriman State Park hike, with Manhattan-skyscraper views from the summit.

For a mile or so we follow cascading Pine Meadow Brook (with recent rain, anything but a brook,) then climb the Cascade of Slid, a confused jumble of rocks caused by a hillside cave-in. There's plenty more climbing--nothing technical--and nothing the 78/yo leader can't do. After our decent, a picnic lunch at a  private--well, semi-private--spot overlooking Pine Meadow Lake awaits.

A Community of Volunteers - Paying it Forward

The NYCC has a rich history of volunteering. In fact, nothing is accomplished without it. There would be no ENY, no STS, no programs, SIGs, led rides, web site, special events, anything without our members stepping up to perform a variety of tasks.  Moreover, we have been told countless times: “we must give back” to the club; “pay it back” for all it does for us.
