From Ross Deck onwards. Does anybody know why and whether safe to ignore (i.e. climb over and ride on)?

Thanks, Matthias

The fit studios seem to be closed.  Does anyone know someone good at a bike shop to fit my new pedals, cleats and shoes?  Thanks,

At least for those of us who have been cycling these parts for the last 25 years or so, it's stunning news that today a road crew was milling Hudson Ave. between Piermont Rd. & County Rd. To think it's finally going to be repaved after 25 bone-shaking years!

And FYI, they were also milling North Woodland starting somewhere north of Johnson Ave. (After we'd climbed Churchill, a cop told us to turn around and go up some other way because we couldn't turn onto Woodland. Needless to say I was having none of that; I told him I'd walk on the grass, but I wasn't climbing another hill!)

Hi. I'm a proud member of the NYCC, and also one of the slowest riders on the East Coast, possibly in the whole country. But it's a joy to ride in our parks.  I was riding Monday along the Hudson River bikeway, going south, and I was astounded by the recklessness of many riders.  Only half wore helmets, and people passed me on both sides without calling out a warning.  I was curious if others have noticed this. Also, lots of people on motorized bikes and skateboards raced by.  I can only imagine that there will be a lot of accidents in the weeks ahead.  Ride safely.

It's 51ø (that's degrees because I don't see how to make a degree sign on the MB)

Hello all. 

I'm posting this to avoid being bad citizen, and to avoid being marooned up the hudson. 

My wife and I were planning on cycling from NY to Bear mountain, then getting the train back to Grand central from Manitou on the hudson line. My questions to anyone who has tried it, or knows about these things, are:

• Are they allowing cyclists onto the trains?
• Is it safe i.e. have they found a way to manage passanegers safely? Or is it still a stupid/irresponsible thing to do?
• Is bear mountain open to cyclists?

Thanks all - hop you're all staying safe!

Is a mask mandatory when you ride in New Jersey?
