Rockaways Ride Postponed

Submitted by CWaaser on Sat, 09/30/2017 - 7:04am

Rain is forecast for the Rockaways this afternoon, so I'm postponing the "Bike Your Park" ride to tomorrow.

My bike was stolen in Hamilton Heights Harlem on 9/27/17. It is a Giant Liv Avail Small Women's Road Bike, Matte Dark Purple Finish with Red-Pink Accents, Liv Connect Saddle and Drop Bars, Black Bar tape, Giant SR-2 Wheels 700x25c Tires, Shimano Click'R pedals. Two water bottle cages (one silver oversized and one black).

Alternatives to the North Side of the GW Bridge.

The north side of the GWB – the stairs – ugh – shoot me now and end my pain.

It’s dark!  Any suggestions on a headlight for those early AM loops in the park?  How many lumens does one need?

How is the North side of the GWB?

I assume that someone has used the North side by now.  How was it?  What is the condition of the stairs?

Also, I am thinking about riding the ferry to Weehawken as an alternative.  Any suggestions for a route from Weehawken to Hudson Terrace?"
