UWS Tandem Partner Wanted for Visually Impaired Professor
Hello There!
My name is Sheena, I am a Professor at Columbia and I'm looking for a cycling partner! I own a tandem bike and have been riding for a few years with folks from NYCC. You'd obviously have to ride in the front :)
The only requirement I have is that you are at least 5'8", as the bike is set for someone at least that tall.
I live right off of Riverside Drive, so it's quite convenient to get on and off the bike path on the West Side Highway.
I love to ride in the mornings but can be flexible on time.
If you're interested or want to learn more, please send me an email at [email protected]
Best,
Sheena
Closure on this difficult issue
These are times of change: white privilege vs black lives matter, serial abuse relating to public figures, dysfunctional leadership on high.

Rider Down This Afternoon on 9W
I was approaching the turnoff to The Esplande at 3:45pm this afternoon when an amublance with siren flew by me, and stopped a 100 meters beyond.

My immediate instinct was to stop--but there were so many involved at that point I realized I would just be unwelcome and in the way, so I proceeded on. Whoever it was I hope he's ok, and if he was struck by a vehicle, and again I have no idea that he was but can't come up with many other explanations considering how straight that section of r
STATE LINE LOOKOUT_Recovery Ride*/April 15th/CANCELLED
Ride cancelled due to forecast of rain/showers, cold and wind. Next weekend will be better.
Thanks, whoever you are
To the group that got stuck behind me on the ramp up to the bridge this morning:
I have one C-siggie who still hasn't conquered the ramp, although she's making great progress. I know we held you up when she couldn't get started after the hairpin turn and it took a while to get her up to the wider space where we could pull over and let you all pass. I just want to say THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for giving her words of encouragement instead of curses. That was greatly appreciated.
