9W corridor between Bear Mountain & Newburgh questions

Submitted by MHiller on Mon, 09/20/2021 - 7:35am

Hey, anyone happen to know if

1) West Point has reopened to casual visitors, if crossing south (from Thayer Gate) to north (leaving at Washington Gate)?

2) Has Storm King Highway (218 from Washington Gate south into the village of Cornwall) reopened to traffic?

For the latter, I heard that immediately after Ida it was closed to all uses due to falling rocks, and there were people actually watching and not even letting bikes through.

Thanks!

Dear Board: Please publish the names of those who've accepted nominations to the board before nominations close.

Travelers Insurance Representative?

Submitted by tompatodonnell on Thu, 09/16/2021 - 10:51am

In Steve Vacarro's extremely informative presentation at the last club meeting I believe he mentioned that one of the Club members sells Travelers bike insurance. I did not catch the member's name as it was a bit hard to hear. Did anyone hear it?

South County Trail condition between Hartsdale and Elmsford

Submitted by mhsimkin on Sun, 09/12/2021 - 3:13pm
I rode the South County trail this morning to/from Elmsford on my road bike with 25c tires.  However, I didn’t quite make it to Elmsford.  There are two issues:
 
1) There is approximately 1 mile that is dirt.  This starts just after the wood planked bridge by the Great Hunger Memorial.  It has not really rained for the last few days, so the dirt was rideable, just slowly.  I expect that this section will be paved at some point between now and November.  I don’t know when.  I don’t know if they are waiting for a nice long stretch of dry weather to let the remaining mud dry before being paved or if they are still working on fixes.
