Hi fellow riders!

I'm starting to get a sharp pain on my right knee while cycling.

At one point I was thinking of quitting the Five Boro Bike Ride

at the halfway point; but used the time helping out stranded

riders(I was a volunteer marshal) as rest periods and was able to 

finish.

Can somebody recommend a sports doctor please? I used the 

search function; but got surgeons instead of doctors just for exams

and/or x-rays.

Thanks,

Ernest

Does anyone have any experience renting a car bike rack?  I'm travling to Annecy with the family in July, and trying to work out the logistic of transporting the bike from the Geneva airport to our apartment in Annecy.  Would prefer not to rent a van, as I will only need to extra space for 2 trips to and from the airport.

Thanks!

This Monday, May 4th, there is a program by a woman who rode across Afghanistan at the Explorer's Club at 7PM.  There is a reception at 6PM.  If interested check out this web site https://explorers.org  

If anyone left a Look Cleat Cover on Metro North, yesterday, then I have it for you.

Hey all!

I currently live in Inwood but am considering moving up to Westchester and commuting into the city 3 days a week (3x 12.5 hour schedule). Does anyone use the South County Trailway to come down from the Tarrytown or Ossining area?

How do you feel about riding through Van Cortland Park and the upper parts of Harlem River Drive or the greenway in the dark (5:30am or after 8pm)? Is it safe for a person riding alone or have folks had issues with opportunists? 

And, is there a group of folks who ever meet up to commute together into the city from that area?

Thanks ahead of time for any insights!

Maybe this was posted before, but we found out today that Hardenburgh just south of Anderson, has a bridge under contstruction and the road is blocked. So if you're heading to Knickerbocker or Schralenburg on Hardenburgh, find another way to get to County Road. we just went over to Closter Dock Road and then doubled back, which wasn't ideal, but worked.

The detour around the bridge construction on Oak Tree in Tappan is very well marked so that's no big deal.

I've written you (now twice) to change our start location due to CP's invasion by the 5-Boro/Bike New Yorkers. I asked each of you to write me in return to let me know you got my note. Two of you have. Maybe you others read the MB more than your e-mail. (Don't even talk to me about texting.) So, here's the message again: 9:45. CPW @ 72nd  St. (I'll leave to you how you get from east to west.)
