Barrier Back Up On NJ Side of GWB

Submitted by RSchmon on Fri, 11/01/2019 - 5:51pm

Just a heads up: a barrier is back up on the NJ side of the GWB, that I understand was put in last Wednesday.  It is very narrow, probably less room than the one we had removed last spring.  A friend will post a picture shortly on this threat.  The good news is that the security guy in the white car that parks at the point where the gates swing open said it was fine to ride around his car and on the road side of the barrier; however, he still has those orange pyramid-type barriers between his fender and the entrance to the road side!  So the visual as you approach will not be inviting to go around his car--but he claimed that was fine.  Which of course begs the question why is the barrier there in the first place!  But more on that later--we're working

Zwift Group Rides

Submitted by mhsimkin on Fri, 11/01/2019 - 6:45am

Hi.

Now that the weather is turning colder and more unpredictable, I'm wondering if there is any interest in setting up our own Zwift group rides?

Late last year, Zwift rolled out a feature to allow users to set up thier own group rides. However, there was no way to keep the riders in your own group together.  Recently, they released an update to that feature, that enabled "rubber banding".  Rubber banding attempts to keep the riders within a reasonable distance of each other.
