9W cleanup rides on Sunday, Oct 19
Several B & C rides are listed for Sunday's cleanup. We need you to sign up ASAP so I know how many refreshments to order. Also, it would be really nice if an A-ride is organized for the cleanup.
For those of you who havn't done this before, it is not onerous or messy. We will have latex gloves for those who don't want to get their hands dirty and the whole job, if enough people show up, takes less than a hour. Then there's plenty of time to enjoy a cool one with friends.

Grade the Manhattan Bridge?
Question: What grade would the Manhattan Bridge path receive, based on current use, according to the US Federal Highway Administration?
