Does anyone know a place near 90th and Lex with a hose that will let you wash off your bicycle? I live at 90th and Lexington. I don't mind paying for it.

Very short notice B18 to Nyack

Submitted by danjcastro on Sun, 10/02/2011 - 7:45am

Chill B18 to Nyack at 10am meeting at 72nd & RSD.  It's spur of the moment but the weather looks as though it will cooperate for part of the day.  Just two of us for now but a few more would be cool.  Safety and fun are the only two requirements.........................

Meet at 10am or email with any questions:  [email protected]
