NYCC Labor day weekend in Poughkeepsie
Hope you can join us in Poughkeepsie for Labor day weekend. I've rented a great house from Saturday til Monday. House is less then a mile from the Hopewell Junction rail trail and the walkway over the Hudson.
Tentative plan for the weekend: Day 1: 2 bridges ride (~44 miles, 2700 ft). Lunch at Tito Sanatana Taqueria. Afternoon swim (pool in house)
Day 2: Bike to Rhinebeck, lunch at Bread alone (mainly flat ride, ~30 miles). Afternoon swim or trip to mansion or ARTOMI. Dinner at Local111 in Philmont.
Day 3: Swim, then bike the rail trail.
There are plenty of things to do in the area, and the roads are so bike friendly!
All rides will be posted on the listings. B 15-17 pace, we'll accomodate other speeds too!
PIP Alpine Ranger Station Hours
Does anyone know the hours for the ranger station? I'm thinking about trying to do Henry Hudson Drive/River Road one morning before heading to work. I just would either need to refill my water bottles at the ranger station or make sure I carry extra.
Thanks

Kvetch and Kvell Ride CANCELLED
Well, discretion is the better part of valor. The forecast is just too daunting, so we’re canceling. Look for a reschedule later in the month.

The big three from the Lance era can't seem to stay out of trouble. That's excluding Landis and Hamilton.
Morning Tickets en route to GWB
This morning we had a group of 6 meeting at GWB for pre-work River Road. We meet at the bridge, so folks were riding up separately.
Out of 6 riders, two (!) received tickets this morning on Fort Washington Blvd - mind you, this was between 5:45AM and 6:00AM. From the description, seems like it was one undercover car that was doing the tickets.
(Meanwhile, the yo-yo's who climbed around the locked gate onto the GWB suffered no penalty, except an eye-roll by the PA worker who saw them as he approached to remove the lock....they saved themselves about 90 seconds....just sayin')

If you’re on the east end this Saturday morning, I’ll be leading an A level ride from the Springs General Store to the Montauk Lighthouse and back. More info and sign-up here: https://nycc.org/node/89410
I hope to see you there.
