odd GWB path message
This was sent out 34 times
I know the official time is 6 a.m. but during the summer it was routinely open closer to 5:00 a.m (just a guess but perhaps a nod to the earlier sunrise time). Was this a warning to not expect this going forward?

Carbon Wheels and Exaust from Rear Carriers
Bicycling Magazine has an interesting article on damage to carbon wheels from the exaust when using rear carriers. I tried to attach the article but did not know how.
Best wishes to Leora Rosenberg, newest member of the Kollarbone Klub
Leora took a spill on a ride Saturday on a very bad piece of pavement in Hartsdale. (Beware Rte 100A/Hartsdale Ave > Knollwood Rd, folks!) A friend took Leora direct to NYU Langone where she was treated for a broken collarbone, sprained wrist, and road rash, and released. Leora's in good spirits and on the mend. Thanks, Leora, for your dedication to cycling and to NYCC.

Garmin stolen off bike on NJT
Watch bikes carefully when riding trains to and from ride start/end destinations. On NJT especially, many of us bungie our bikes in downstairs bike section and sit upstairs & pay no attention until we get off. It is too easy for opportunists passing through cars to help themselves to accessories or even grab the top bike and get off at the next station
