We will schedule in July when weather is, hopefully, better.

Ride Leading is FUN.  In ways you may never have imagined.  Really….

Are you interested in leading rides but would like a little coaching and advice on what to do?  If so, we have just the thing!  We’ll spend a day (June 22) giving you our best tips and advice while you are learning the key considerations in ride leading.

We will start with a mandatory sit-down discussion during which we can present guidelines/tips/anecdotes and you can ask questions.  The class will be followed by a practice ride of approximately 50 mostly shady miles roundtrip to Pascack, NJ, with coaching stops along the way.

I happened to drive up the GWB ramp from the Henry Hudson Parkway twice this weekend.  The constructions of the new bike ramp on the north side has started.  I'm sorry, no pictures.  Hard to take those while driving.

The link has some info on how the GWB walkways will change by 2025.

Let's try again on July 14 when we ride to City Island.

Hi all--

Could anyone suggest a ride between Newark, NJ and the GW Bridge?  I'm looking for a safe, but efficient, ride that could possibly be done in the dark (with proper reflector gear and front and back lights, of course!).  I looked in the Ride Library, but get the sense that we only keep the fun rides there. :)  Whereas this one is more about moving quickly from point A to B with minimum fuss and no other perks.

Thanks kindly for any help or suggestions.
