This is also a bike path. Correct me if I am wrong. You know, some people feel I have a hard time differentiating between the 2.

Bike MS 2014?
Anyone doing Bike MS on Sunday and want to join me? This will be my first Century, so I'm probably not your speed demon companion. I'm probably a low A rider. I'm also willing to do the 55 miler to get to the beer tent faster if anyone perfers that route. Best, Claire
Upper Manhattan Evening Commuter Buddy (C rider)
Thought I'd take a shot at seeing if any folks here commute between uptown (Washington Heights/Inwood) and midtown area. I've biked ~2 days a week over the summer, but now the days are shorter. I'd feel safer to ride with someone along the greenway, espcially areas where there is no exit point in case something happens.
I know there are groups that meet in the mornings, but I'm specifically looking for an evening group/partner.
Thanks!
Must have accessory

Cassette Change
Folks,
I am changing my cassette from a 12-27 to a 12-29. (Yeah I know)!
Should I anticipate any problems with chain length or is it just a simple cassette swap out?
Thanks.
New A ride for Sunday: Up and Over Bear Mountain
Join me for a moderately quick pace ride to the top of Perkins then down the other side of Perkins and back up.
The weather forecast for Sunday is clear and cool. Expect that the temperature at the top of Bear Mountain when we get there will be about 61F, while the temperature at our start at the Eleanor Roosevelt Statue shortly after dawn is 50F. So a day of layers....
In the event it is needed, you can get a train bailout at Spring Valley. Our return route passes very near the station.
Please note:
