Be aware that the MS Bike Tour is October 6th and there will be thousands of cyclists on the road.  The 55-mile route as well as the Century goes on 9W as well as 501 (with an early start on River Road, which will be packed). 

Has anybody any experience of taking a train back mid week. Are bikes allowed. My next few weekends are full with obligations so I'm panning on playing hooky from work one day this week and riding up to Bear.

Thanks.

A helpful officer is parked after the second circle ready to dispense patient advice.

It seems the UCI has a new prsident,

"The old order changeth, yielding place to new, And God fulfils himself in many ways,

Some of you have asked why my ride listing disappeared from the upcoming rides list. The reason is I changed the number of allowed riders from 15 to 25 so everyone on the wait list is now included. I think it is off temporarily whilst being approved. It should reappear later today, but if not, just show up at Eleanor at 8:30 tomorrow morning and we'll sign up the old fashioned way. Jerry Ross

Something went wrong with the previous post, I'll try it again.

Iride Bicycles will be featured in a Manhattan luxury event. It is an invitation-only event. We have a few invitations to pass along, I would like to have more bikers there. Message me if would like to go.

Private jets, yachts, rare wines, the new McLaren sports car, AND handmade Italian Iride bicycles will be on display at this elite exhibition presented by Rand Luxury. Those appreciating the finer things have grown to appreciate fine bicycles.

Spectular aerial views of the river and Piermont from strategically placed benches--very romantic! Toll free (for bikes) access the"mountain" enter the park from 9W--turn right off Rockland Road pass toll booth, go straight to circle and go up or enter from Piermont end of Ferdon canal, ride on wide hardpack trail and instead of continuing towards pool go uphill to circle and turn right (UP) 

Here's a link to a fantastic company that runs cycling training camps and holidays in Mallorca. They are a very reasonably priced group based in the northeast of the island where all the pro teams go to train. They work with all levels of cyclists. I trained with them last February. It was a great experience. www.sportactive.net

Hi Everybody,

Made to order Iride bicyles will be featured in the latest Luxury Review event in Manhattan October 3. We have a handful of invitations to pass on for this invitation only event. If you are around then and would like to go, message me back, I'll send you an invitation, while supplies last, as they say. I would like to have more bikers here.

Thanks
