Sunday July 5 Ride to PIP - Ride to Irv Schachter Memorial Bike Rack

Submitted by HSchachter on Thu, 06/25/2015 - 8:11am

I want to thank Claire Mordas for arranging a ride on Sunday, July 5 to the new memorial bicycle rack donated by the club to remember  Irv. (See ride listings for details) The club's generosity fills me with gratitude. I hope to see many people who knew Irv on the ride.

 

I also hope for clear weather. Does anyone remember a wetter June?

July 4th weekend

Submitted by GRoss on Wed, 06/24/2015 - 7:52pm

the vast majority of club members are not going to New Paltz and a good number will be staying in the city. It would be great if a few rides were posted; I am sure they would draw a good turnout.Traffic is generally lighter because a lot of people do go away for a long weekend. Unfortunately, I will be away for the entire weekend so won't be able to lead a ride myself.

I am thinking of getting a Dahon to use for casual riding around town. Does any body have any advise on which models to  consider?

Thanks, Richard

 

Safe parking in Rockland ??

Submitted by Sir Roger on Tue, 06/23/2015 - 8:53pm

In an effort to spend more time in the countryside and less on the 24 mile round trip from my house to the GWB on the weekends, I have taken to strapping the bikee on the car and parking in Washington heights. Looking to extend my riding adventures north does anyone know of safe parking places up in Rockland. Is the Toga Nyack parking lot available to day riders ??  

Specifically asking for Parking info here not train options.

Weekday morning B16 rides from 242/Bway?

Submitted by JFinder on Mon, 06/22/2015 - 10:59pm

Mitch Bacharach and I have been doing midweek rides from Riverdale and wonder if any other uptown types would like to join us. Tentatively the ride would start at 7 a.m. and go around the Riverdale - Dobbs Ferry - Irvington - Ardsley - Grassy Sprain area. Plenty of possible variations. Maybe 2 and a half hours.

All the details can be discussed. Let us know.
