Current Central Park Conditions?

Does anyone know what the Central Park Drive is like currently? Ice? Snow? Crazy to even think about it?

Thanks!

MTB Trail condition question?

Submitted by alan west on Sun, 01/08/2017 - 11:24am

Can anyone tell me if it's OK to ride local trails today (Sunday), or are the conditions too damaging to the trails?

Hard Case

Anyone familiar with this SciCon hardcase? https://us.sciconbags.com/products/bike-travel-bags-bike-cases/road/aerotech-evolution-tsa

I'm looking to find a shipping box/case that requires the least amount if disassembly and is still protective.

Just in case anyone thought about riding (or walking) across the bridge today, the PANYNJ has closed the south sidewalk.

As of Sunday 10:40 a.m., sidewalk has been reopened.

CANCELLED - BEACH/CHURCH/ITALIAN MARKET

Submitted by SRodetis on Sat, 01/07/2017 - 12:20am

Saturday update - - too much slip and slide out there to be magically clear by Sunday and safe to ride anywhere in the city.  CANCELLED!  

Best to all,

Susan

 

 

 

 

 

Sighhhhhhhh, ah yes, a reality check from the weather. Looking ahead to Sunday - - here's what make sense at this point

 

1) We'll only ride if pavement safe . . to be determined by 9AM Sunday morn

2) ride start changed to noon, same place though. Open to all.

George's Arctic Roller ride cancelled, 1/7/17

Submitted by HBedi on Fri, 01/06/2017 - 10:26pm

In the interest of safety, George's Arctic Roller ride on Saturday, 1/7/17 is cancelled due to snow, extreme temps, and hazardous road conditions.

Long Beach Pizza rescheduled for 1/14

Submitted by NWeissman on Fri, 01/06/2017 - 9:03pm
Mid-20’s temps are bearable, but snow over black ice is not.  (We could get an inch of fresh powder by the time we hit Vanderbilt bike path.)  With consistent temps under freezing, Sunday's road conditions won’t be any better.  Rescheduled for Saturday, 1/14.
 
Getting out studded shoes.  Good day for a walk.  
 

Balducci's Ride: Postponed to 1/28

Submitted by PStorey on Fri, 01/06/2017 - 7:02pm

Well, we hoped, we prayed . . . 

But with temps in the mid 20s, windchills approaching single digits and a better than even chance of snow, it just doesn't seem to be our day.

We'll try again on the 28th. Keep your eyes peeled.
