Yesterday's very challenging 100 mile Gran Fondo NY was excellent!

Submitted by JJacobson on Mon, 05/22/2017 - 12:42pm

It compares with no other event.  It exceeded my expectations in many respects: perfect weather, route improvements,  food and drinks, and  friendly police from a dozen departments directing auto traffic to yield to passing bicyclists. Although I didn't need it, I noticed many roving mechanics driving motorcycles or cars quickly appearing and making repairs, the pre race information details, pre and post race festivities.

July 4th Weekend - Transportation Question

Submitted by AHalpern on Sun, 05/21/2017 - 11:19am

Hi,

This looks like a fun weekend!  Regarding the trains, I'm less familiar, is it Amtrak or Metro North that goes to Hopewell Junction or Brewster?  

Thanks!

Anne

Never mind!

Can someone take my bag up to the Berkshires?

Submitted by michael on Thu, 05/18/2017 - 12:05pm

Can someone take my bag up to the Berkshires this Memorial Day weekend?

It's a large messenger bag.

It has always wanted to visit the Berkshires.

I'm also going to the Berkshires this Memorial Day weekend but I'm riding part of the way there and back so my bag can't ride with me. It's just too far.

Did I mention that my bag will also need a ride back to the city?

I and my messenger bag live in Astoria and we will be staying in Great Barrington.

Thank you!

Michael
