Don't route thru Tarrytown Sept. 18-20

Submitted by CWaaser on Wed, 08/19/2015 - 1:13pm

The "Crafts at Lyndhurst" festival is taking place Sept. 18-20.  Every year during this festival, automobile traffic on Broadway/US 9 south of Tarrytown is hideous, backed up in both directions, with lots of cars entering and exiting the grounds at Lyndhurst (about 1/2 mile south of the Tappan Zee). You'd be wise to avoid that stretch on your bikes.

Wireless Cateye not working?

Hello everyone

I bought a wireless Cateye and I could NOT get it to work. I tried everything. Then I watched this video:

...and bought the magnets. I finally got them and installed one magnet and it works like a charm.

I had to buy a pack of magnets - so I have several left over. If you would like one - just ask.

Submitted by JJacobson on Wed, 08/19/2015 - 8:40am

Small handful of NYCC members has opening for 1 or 2 more B16 cyclists for informal 100 mile ride.  After being closed to cyclists for years after 9/11 we now  have written permission to cycle thru West Point and  after crossing the Hudson at Newburgh/Beacon to take the train  back to NYC. Route includes leaving NYC at 7 AM and brilliant scenery in Piermont/Nyack, Rockland Lake, Haverstraw/Stony Point Marina districts, Bear Mountain, arguably the most beautiful road in the metro area: Route 218 into Cornwall, Cold Spring, etc.  Early bailouts at 60 & 80 miles available and probable train arrival for everyone in NYC 7 PM ish.  Please email me ([email protected]) if you want to join us.
