The forecast is snow on the road and 26 degree temperatures; the ride is cancelled.

It pains me, a lifelong Weather Wussy, to state the Times made a mistake, but I didn't ride in the cold 22 years ago just as I don't now, and I didn't tell the reporter I did. 

I would like to cycle from Manhatten to other side of the Harlem River (by Spuyten).  It seems we cannot ride accross the Henry Hudson Parkway.  How long a walk is it across that bridge?  Is there any better way than dismounting and walking?

WTF! #5 - “Winter Trailways”.  Figuring the overnight snow would turn something familiar into something unique, we banked Patriot’s Path and trained up to Brewster and down the North-South County Trailway.  3 riders. 49 miles.  1000’ climbing.  Ride condiitions a twin of last week, sunny, crisp.  Consistent 2” fresh powder.  Perfect.  

CANCELLED: Lucky 13 Feb 3_Better In Bergen ... due to storm and frigid temps, we are cancelling tomorrow's ride. Hopefully next week is better. :)

Best,

My rear wheel on my road/weekend bike sounds like there's some sort of object rolling around freely inside the tube when the rim spins at low RPM. Like a roulette-wheel kind of thing. It's not coming from the hub, it's definitely from inside the rim/tire chamber. 

I can't hear it when I'm on the bike, it's a very subtle noise. I think I first heard it when I was carrying it through my apartment and the rear wheel was freespinning in the air. 

Cold and windy. Temperatures are not rising enough. This ride is unfortunately cancelled (AGAIN.) Maybe we will relist it on July 14th. (LOL) Stay warm.

So sorry but the weather just is not cooperating.  We feel that riding with wind chills in the teens is really just not fun.

NYCC,

I'm considering participating (through a charity) in this year's L'Etape du Tour in July (http://www.letapedutour.com/ET1/us/homepage.html) and am looking for anyone who can provide or direct me to any information or guides on preparing for this type of event or even others who are also taking part or would be interested in training with me for this in/around NYC.

Many thanks in advance for any information, Henry

The ramp from 158th down to the west side Greenway is closed, and from the looks of the chain link fence, will stay that way for the foreseeable future. The stairs are still open.

This stinks, because it was a very nice alternative to the potentially-very-slick hill under the GWB. :( Anyone have other easy suggestions? I come fom 181st-ish and prefer to avoid as much traffic as possible.
