Wet roads.  Possible thunderstorms.

Due to the likelihood of rain, tomorrow's Ice Cream Social is being postponed until Tuesday, 8/18.  All other details remain the same (same time, same location, same great ice cream, same great views).  The event page on NYCC's homepage will be updated accordingly.  We hope you can still join us!!

People,

For the last not-quite-two-weeks, there's been some kind of reconstruction project on the greenway between the Boat Basin and Riverside Park South. Thus far it's applied a new surface to the westernmost 1/3rd of the path. As of this weekend, the project had gone as far southward as the path that comes down from the bike/ped underpass near 72nd. So the closures hadn't been too disruptive, because there was always a way around further up in the park, further east of the river.

Been a while since Ive ridden River road on a weekday, but planning on doing a quick ride out of city and through river road  thursday. Has it been closed to construction at all? 

Yesterday on the way back to the city I broke a spoke. We got to Tenafly 5 minutes before their closing time, and they kept the store open for an extra 25 minutes to repair my wheel. They were friendly and helpful about the whole thing. 

PS. Right now they're running a sale on 2015 road bikes. 25-30 percent off.

Marilyn and I are riding to Manhattan Beach for lunch tomorrow (Sunday.) Friends can meet up at Eleanor Roosevelt statue for a prompt 9:00am departure.  

Easy, slower-paced city ride.  Be sure to let us know if you’re coming.

For New Yorkers who consider cycling key to their quality of life, the George Washington Bridge remains the indispensable amenity. Both Sides Now

Can anyone tell me if all or part of the Rockaway LI Boardwalk would be good for/legal for cycling Saturday, mid-day, in August?
