As I rode through the park today I encountered a police checkpoint on the East Drive across from the Boathouse. Three officers were stopping all cyclists at the red light. One asked about the practice when there are no pedestians at the crosswalk and got the old line that if cars have to stop at a red light so do bicyclists. Somehow that does not apply to going the wrong way on a one way street. This was after 8AM. I am wondering what is the experience of those who ride in th 6-8AM time period. Any noticable police activity?    

Hi,

At the ENY festival, will there by areas to "park" bikes or do we just keep them as we wander around? Just checking so I know if I need to bring something to lock up.

Thanks!

Especially on bike lanes sandwiched between parked cars and tarffic lane.

   A few parts of the 2014 Interbike show will be on Verizon, #804(HD) on Friday September 26 at 8PM.

   Also it will be shown on Saturday, 9/27 at 6:30 AM and again at 12 noon, same #804.

The road is looking awesome as far as it goes, but you'll need to ride milled roadway till it's finished.  I was able to ride the western sidewalk from the gwb to Strictly, where I turned left and went up to Lemoine.  The milling takes quite a toll on the hands after a bit.  Coming home, I again took the sidewalk almost all the way to the bridge.  The roadway is paved now, but only one lane of traffic (north-going) was getting through.  I was assured it will be DONE by Saturday for ENY!

not a single shot of a cyclist, or even a tourist on a bike, in central park.
