If you get a message about an NYCC sharing a document with you: DO NOT CLICK IT
It appears to be some sort of spear-phishing attack that I and a few other people have accidentally clicked on (it looks genuine).
In my case, my wife said that she got an email "from" me within minutes. I'm not sure if this is an issue for those without gmail accounts, but do not click the link if you've gotten a message that I have "shared" a document with you, and set yourself up with 2-factor authentication ASAP.
UPDATE: This is an article describing the attack: https://arstechnica.com/security/2017/05/google-docs-phish-worm-grabs-yo... Thanks to Mrunal for the linkWho has white cycling shoes?
I am in the market for a new pair of cycling shoes and am toying with the idea of getting a white pair. Obviously, fit and price are more important than color, but maybe I'm just getting a little bored with basic black. (Neon green or orange shoes are right out.) Are they hard to clean after getting caught a nasty downpour? Do nylon mesh areas come clean? Thanks.
Henry Hudson Drive (aka river road) is OPEN!

A chance for ENY registrants and NYCC members to ride with world-famous Stephen Roche, winner of the 1987 Triple Crown
We are very pleased to welcome back our loyal Escape New York sponsor, Stephen Roche.
This world famous cyclist and friend of NYCC is the 1987 winner of the Triple Crown. It is the pinnacle of professional cycling achievement to capture wins in the Tour de France, Giro de I’talia, and the Road World Cycling Championship all in the same year!
L’ETAPE 87, to be held June 9-13, 2017, is a 30-year commemorative event and a chance to ride with Stephen himself on some of the most epic climbs in the French Alps. This pro-tour cycling experience will take you on routes specially designed by Stephen to celebrate and evoke memories of the 1987 Tour de France.
Alpine Hill status update: Morning, May 1, 2017
A small group of us rode up 9W to try out the newly repaired Alpine Approach Road this morning. About 500 feet downhill from the police station we found barriers and a sign saying the road is closed (including no bikes).
I was a bit puzzled since I had called the Palisades Park Police Sunday evening and was told that Alpine Approach was open.
As we debated what to do a patrol car drove down from the station and told us that we weren't allowed to go down the hill (although if we had been a minute faster and gone through before he got there he wouldn't have cared). He said he wouldn't give us a ticket even if we went down, but he said that another officer might choose to ticket us.
