Alpine Ranger Station Status?
Does anyone know the status of the Alpine Ranger Station? Is it open to the public? Is there a water fountain?
Thanks
Although I'm not interested in a folding bike, I find this review of them interesting
Ride To Oyster Bay - Ameneties
We had a nice ride out to Oyster Bay.
Please be aware that the usual warm weather lunch spot, Teddy Roosevelt Park by the marina, is closed to non-Oyster Bay residents. There is an abundance of open space, but the town wants to resrict the crowds. There are still plenty of open spaces to eat lunch. We ate in the gazebo outside of town hall on Main Street. Sweet Tomatoes restaurant is open and doing their typical great job.
The bathrooms are open at Cunningham Park on the outbound route, but not the Little Neck Starbucks' along the LIE service road. Use Panera Bread's facilities in the same shopping center.
Garmin hacked!!!
Lawyer Recommendations for Accident
Hi All, I was involved in an accident on my bike on 9 West. Thankfully I came away with minimal injuries, but my bike was broken into pieces. Does anyone know any lawyers that specialize in cyclist accidents? I'm new to the area and want to ask directly before I jump into a google search.
Happy 90th Birthday, Geo Kaplan, 3X club president (1993-'94-'95)
You know from reading this MB, Geo is still a very active presence in the club. Were you to speak with him, you would be astonished by the youthfulness, the energy, the clarity, the enthusiasm of his voice--truly that of a youngster in every respect. Really.
Happy Birthday, Geo. But don't go riding today. It'll be hot.
Hardenburgh was open today
We were prepared to work around construction on Hardenburgh but found out, to our pleasant surprise, that it was open. There were no signs of ongoing construction just shut down over the weekend.
Lamont Observatory is closed unless you have a Columbia ID
The guard wouldn't let us into Lamont without Columbia University ID. He said it is now a permanent restriction.
Lamont was part of my favorite route to Tallman Mountain Park and Piermont.
You can still get to Tallman by staying on 9W, making a R on Washington Spring Rd (at the traffic signal, opposite Oak Tree Rd), then 1st L onto Woods Rd. https://goo.gl/maps/ytqUhXKnyyidWbhn8
Or if you want to pick up some goodies at 9W Market there's another entrance to Tallman just beyond.
