Relaxed Bunburying #1 2016

Wednesday, March 09, 2016 10:00 AM

Did you see Wednesday's weather forecast (74 high)?
Yes, it's again time to visit my ailing friend Bunbury (and sample his muffins) and I'd love some company for this relaxed recovery-pace ride - my first of 2016.

Route will include bike path to/from GWB and River Road (for its scenic value, not the climbs - after all of which we will regroup as necessary).

Optional: Those who have interest can add Bradley/Tweed - I'll be waiting for you at Bunbury's over a muffin or two.

Interesting article about Uber's entry into the bike messenger business.

My response to Christy

The Americans with Disabilities act has been a godsend for those who need access, but the word bicycle does not appear in ADA guidelines.  The advocacy is to get the Port Authority to bring the GWB into compliance with federal guidelines so cyclists aren't compelled to walk. Nothing more.  Nothing less.

Nomad Cycles in Queens

Great shop for people who live in Queens. You can watch him work. He explains everything to you and won't get you to buy something you don't need. Terrific place. They will be moving to 37th street and 37th ave near Northern blvd. Look up Nomad Cycles.
