Does anyone know what the road conditions are in terms of ice/debris?

just not sure of debris situation, esp in the dark....

It's amazing what a snow belt Englewood is.  I noticed last winter how they always had more snow piled up than just west of the town.  I decided to take 501 to Piermont today, as I feared 9W would have little, if any, shoulder to ride on.  I was correct.  However, the sides streets we usually take to get to East Clinton (Summit, Lyncrest, Lydecker, Pershing, etc.) were SLAMMED.  There were thousands of branches down, hundreds of old trees, and several power lines as well.  I have to hand it to the Tenafly township, though; there were STOP signs up where the main traffic lights were not powered, and all in all it was an okay ride.  Piermont, as Jay said in a separate post, was fine.  It was GETTING to Piermont that was the issue.

I am looking for trainers in need of a purpose....

OWS had their generators taken away a few days ago.  A group I work with as a side project, http://www.pedalpowernyc.org/, is trying to assist them so we went down there to evaluate their energy demands and see the pedal powered generators they were setting up. 

If anyone has rollers, magnetic resistance trainers, wind trainers that they don't use or maybe you need an excuse to replace yours.... contact me.  Perhaps once we get them set up, I'll lead a ride down there and we can spend a few hours spinning on the generators to charge their batteries on a cold day.  A good group of riders can put out some nice useful wattage, be outdoors and...
