NYC Parks Dept Enforcement officers are out today along a few locations on the Hudson River section of Greenway preparing to enforce regulations that limit access to only certain types of ebattery-assisted bikes. Good to have seen Park enforcement officers enforcing the regulations, beefed up by NYPC officers and squad cars.

Park enforcement officer says that the reason there are so few signs along the Greenway advising the public of the regulations/prohibitions is that other Parks Dept regulations restrict the number of signs that can be posted in NYC Parks about regulations (presumably to limit visual pollution). (UGH!) He also says that the period of warnings in now over and confiscation of prohibited bikes has started. Let’s see.

The bathroom (men's) is exactly the same. Smells a little smokey still.

The water fountain with the bottle refill is unusable, the filter hasn't been cleaned out, ever?

BTW, they still don't want you to lean your bikes on the building. Signs are up for cyclists to use the bike racks, which aren't there. The new asphalt is nice though.

Oh, for all the post-pandemic newbies- The "Ranger Station" is the building on top of the last hill on aka River Road. They had a fire inside and the public area was closed for a long time, and they didn't even give it a fresh coat of paint years later.

I seem to recall receving a warning recently that one of the main roads used to tour the Gunks (perhaps it was Mohonk Road or Main Street/Rte. 44, both of which run through the Mohonk Preserve) was under construction and impassable.  But I can't find the warning and I'm leading a ride up there this Saturday. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

Looking to ride with someone heading to New Paltz on August 2 (and back if possible).

Live in Manhattan and can travel to where your car is in Manhattan.  

Happy to share gas and other expenses.

 thank you,

Hi all,

It turns out I will be away the weekend of the Escape NY much to my disappointment.

I registered and can no longer use it so if anyone is looking to register, I can easily transfer my

registration to you.  Please let me know as soon as possible.

thank you,

Marian Margulies

Has anyone ridden storm king highway from Highland Falls to Cornwall on Hudson recently? Is it open? Is it safe?

Thanks,

Mike

Hey y'all,

New club member here. Was thinking about doing a chill ride tomorrow (Wed, June 26). I'm a B-18 rider, and was planning on something a bit more relaxed (~22 min lap) but open to pressing pace a little bit depending on what folks are interested in doing. Planning on 3 laps (about 18 miles). Tentative plan is to meet at Tavern on the Green at 6:25, roll out by 6:30am.

I'm new to this, so wasn't planning to run a paceline or anything but if enough folks are interested we can re-evaluate when we meet up.

Cheers!

This tutorial video is in response to some recent questions we've had from members.  I cover two features on the RidewithGPS platform: how to change the start/finish point of a loop route already in your library, and how to create a point to point route.
