New / late A ride listing for Sunday 10/20

Submitted by DHudes on Mon, 10/14/2013 - 7:04pm

The autumn leaves in the Watchung area are turning so it's time for a ride out to climb some hills in Somerset County: Come Ride the Watchungs with me. We'll ride out from Manhattan, climb some hills then have lunch at a kosher restaraunt and ride down a bit for one last steep climb before we head back to catch a NJ Transit train home from Summit where the trains to NY run hourly at 42 minutes past the hour.

RWGPS claims nearly 4400 feet of climbing but reality is more like 4000.

Pat,

Great ride from Greenwich,CT to Bedford,NY and back. Beautiful scenery and route. Keep leading these rides that have great scenery and nice group of riders. I look forward to the next Connecticut ride.

It was good to have proper bicyclists there. I hope you all had a good time. It was a great party.

The champagne and Chivas, those hot electric motorcycles, wow! The new McLarens, and made to order bicycles.

Thank you,

Brian

Does anyone know if they will be letting bikes ride the NYC Marathon course pre-race this year, given the Boston tragedy?  Thanks.

Expanding skills ride?

Submitted by Slugger on Sun, 10/13/2013 - 11:05am
A recent discussion sparked an idea: would you be interested in a ride (possibly several) to introduce you to some road situations you may not typicaly find on a club ride? Specifically, I'd love to see more B and C riders introduced to gravel roads in a controlled, tame way, to build skills and a foundation for more exploration. We could also cover other things the riders might be interested in, like riding on grass and possible even a little bit of bunny hopping. This would not be intro to mountain biking! More like a low-key way to get in on some of the awesome rides around here without committing to 80 mi at A20. This would also not be a skills clinic, but a ride where we'd hit some gravel at low speeds and distances, and *possibly* cover the other topics if people are interested.

Hi,  Can someone tell me where the photos are posted from the Sakura Park photo station? I thought the guy said they would be on Facebook, but I can't seem to find them.   Thanks.
