Ticketing in the park this morning
As I crossed the park on the 72nd street transverse this morning at 9:15, there were 2 cyclists, no, sorry...one cyclist and a bicycle rider, getting tickets. The cyclist was in a kit and looked the part and the bicycle rider was a (helmetless) woman, with her kid in a seat on the back of her bike and her bag in the handlebar basket. They had just gone thru the light as they passed the entrance to the bandshell.
Ride safely.
NYC Century 50 mile option
I'm planning to do the NYC Century 50 mile option on Sunday, 7-Sep. and would like very much to get a group of people (4-6) together to ride as a group (B16/17). Anyone interested in joining me please reach out. Thanks.
Fred routing question
I was out "Fredding" today. ie taking a slow leasurely ride, My route took me up around Lake Tappan and various other bodies of water. A beautiful day. Slow Fred like long stop off at Piermont and back on the low roads.
My question is. Is there a less vertical way of getting back up to Hudson Terrace without having to do Walnut, which is where almost every ride over that way seems to return. I have no problem doing lots of hills when I am pushing it, but when I am out for a Fred I don't particularly want to finsh the ride leaving organ meats by the side of the road

Thanks!
Great new bakery in Nyack
It's been there for over 2 years but I just found it.
The best all natural, gluten free baked goods I've ever had. Also have Veg. Lasagna, mac & cheese and a few others. Their specialty is a rum cake that's perfect for 2 people. No way of telling that it's gluten free and it's absolutely habit forming. Bike friendly and a clean bathroom. Lots of seating for a group.
Flour Buds - 116a Main street. Going north toward the Runcible, make a left on Main and it's 3-4 blocks on the far right hand corner.
Good wishes to club newlyweds.

...Oh, yeah, I suppose I should add to each other.
Joy... pure, unadulterated...

… sing to the joys of solitary riding… that these joys exist is indisputable.
Central Park Laps
Good evening all.
I am new to NYC (moved here from London last month) and tomorrow our seafreight finally turns up which will contain my bike
I have only been Central Park once about 10 years ago for a walk - and got lost!!
Bicycle Ride for Next Summer ?????
Just got back from 2 week long rides mostly in Oregon(part in Northern California). The organizing group is Bicycle Rides Northwest(internet-look them up). Most of the trip was on extremely traffic free roads. Some of you might be interested. Any questions email me or call me(on club list)
PS they carry all your stuff; and it is usually camping as the towns you stay in sometimes do not have motels!!
