LG -- not nice company, even beyond the Palisades issue

Go to: 14andhudson,com.  Located directly across Piermont Ave from Bunbury's it is owned by husb & wife team Eric & Paula Woods.  He is a CIA grad and has been exec. chef at Blue Fin in the W Hotel NYC since 2005.  Seafood will apparently be the specialty.  The #14 is lucky for him--he's the youngest of 14 children!  Paula told me that cyclists are definitely welcome

Berkshires Accommodation - room(s)/share(s) wanted

Submitted by BAshmore on Tue, 05/20/2014 - 9:04pm

Looks like I'll be able to attend after all but need room/share for me only on Friday night and two rooms (me + others) for both Saturday and Sunday nights.

I likely have a backup plan but just throwing this out there in case anyone has any better options.

Friday 5/23: impromptu Westchester ride, Stone Barns, ~40 miles, b18

Submitted by MHiller on Tue, 05/20/2014 - 8:55pm
I'm on a business trip right now, getting back via redeye on Friday morning. Good things don't happen if I try to work after a redeye, though, so how about a ride? I don't want to post it as a listed ride, given that a flight delay or suchlike would upset the apple cart, but in the event that all works out okay, anybody want to join me? Rollout would be about 9:30 from Grant's Tomb; routing will take us directly back to the city, no Metro North trip. Interested? Reply here or directly to me. Obviously, this is not too likely to work out for anyone spending the weekend in the Berkshires.

Mammoth Boulder Falls on River Rd under GW Bridge--it was the size of a car

Submitted by JJacobson on Tue, 05/20/2014 - 3:43pm

The gates N & S of the bridge are chained closed for cars.  Bikes can go around the chains &  easiily ride around the rock.  I think it happened Sunday  & assume it was after the Gran Fondo passed.  Additional rock slides in the area can't be ruled out.

room available at Days Inn

Oops. Forgot that I had a conflict. Anyone interested in a room at the Days Inn?
