Pump recommendations
Hello -
I am looking for two different pumps, and would like to get recommendations:
1) A floor pump, preferably with a metal chuck and that can work with Presta and Schraeder
2) An electric pump, that works AC and DC and that can have pre-set pressure. I believe these features are common on electric pumps. Also prefer one that handles both Presta and Schrader, although I don't think such a pump exists. I see a number of different models, but no idea how to differentiate quality. Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks!

Bikepacking Trip Exchange
Hi All -
New here and super stoked! Wanted to start a thread for us to trade bikepacking routes (Bonus if gravel involved!). I've been riding for a while, but getting more and more into self sustained mini tours and i'd love to get into something this weekend! Would love to know what bikepacking trips you guys have done from and around NYC - happy to take the train to route also.
Thanks!
West Point Access
Has anybody has ridden through West Point recently? Specifically, I'm wondering about bike access through Washington Gate going south via Storm King Highway. Thanks.

A literally definitive way to honor Christy Guzzetta
I think of Christy and Jody today. Today is the summer solstice. I’ve thought of Christy and Jody for years on the day of the summer solstice because for years they led rides in the morning and again in the evening to note it. (I never want on one but I thought it was a really neat way to note the day.)
I have an idea to memorialize Christy. I proposed it to club officers April 5th. Like all my ideas for the club*…nothing came of it. I propose it to the club body today.
