Hi all, 

Any suggestions on how best to get from Peeksill to Tarrytown? I'm hoping to to do a loop this coming weekend from GWB up to Bear Mtn, over the Bear Mtn bridge and then down the east side of the Hudson to cross back over the Cuomo bridge. 

Thanks, Peter

Hi-

I'm working on a tv show and trying to verify if NYPD bike cops in Central Park wear a navy shirt or a high-viz yellow with navy. I've seen pix of the high viz and saw a gaggle of them outside Macys yesterday. Mostly seems like the high viz are for protests. Uniform store in Brooklyn said the high viz are a Strategic Unit, but still trying to make sure.

I'm in the park early before they are deployed, so appreciate any observations. 

thanks,

Lauren

For those of you who like to ride through the Columbia Lamont-Doherty campus it has been reported that the snake population including timber rattlers and copperheads is growing rapidly due to the empty campus and employees working remotely.

And Columbia's own website post warning of wildlife hazards.

Hello everyone, 

I haven't yet received my Escape New York jersey, having missed the deadline to inform the organization that I wanted to pick it up in September.  Apparently there will be a chance to pick it up in person somewhere sometime this month, but I haven't seen any postings or emails about it.  Can anyone direct me to the right information or person?

Thank you,
Dave

Original components are Shimano 600 if that helps.

Someone on one of my rides earlier this year had one of these and struggled to get it fit. CPSC has "recalled" it. As the maker is defunct, the recommended remedy is "dispose." Hat-tip to John Herman, who posted about this on the NYCC Facebook group.

Does anyone have recommendations for cycling resources in NH, north of Concord? I'm looking for route suggestions, must-see destinations, cycling club names, anything to help plan a weekend of riding. We'll be based out of Warner, NH but can travel by car too.

Thanks!

Drove the bike up to ride in Harriman Park yesterday, and on the return drive noticed this new shop on Willow Grove Rd. Years ago it was a deli, but it had been vacant for years. Seemed kind of out of the way for most riders.
