Anyone have strong preferences for tubes? I'd like to order a box as my current stock is running low.

Jersey Shore Ride

Submitted by bherrick on Wed, 05/30/2012 - 4:56pm

Does anyone have any good routes to get down to the Jersey Shore by bike? I was planning on taking the Ferry to Fort Hancock and riding south to LBI from there or doing something along those lines. Has anyone done this before and have any advice?

Lost Red Cellphone on 9w May 30th

Submitted by DMC on Wed, 05/30/2012 - 1:26pm

I believe I lost my red Samsung Galaxy Cellphone while doing a ride from Grants Tomb to Alpine and back on 9w. It probably fell out on the Northbound rise on 9w before it intersects with Alpine (I've already gone there, and it's not there now). If anyone picked it up, please email me at [email protected].  Thanks, DC

This past evening, during the rush hours of 5-7:00 PM, I had the wonderful pleasure of happily riding in the middle lane of Prospect Park, now reserved just for cycling (although of course two young roller bladers found their way into the lane), as the new DOT traffic pattern has finally gone into effect. This is a huge win for the cyclists who ride in Prospect Park during the hours of 7-9:00 AM and 5-7:00 PM. Hopefully, this will set a precident for doing the same in Central Park in the near future.  It clearly shows that advocacy works!

central park crash monday may 28

Submitted by graham1 on Tue, 05/29/2012 - 10:54pm

hi, this is a long shot, but i am trying to find anyone who may have witnessed a crash at around 7 p.m. monday may 28 on the central park drive just before wollman rink where the road narrows, and there's an exit to central park south. a male cyclist in a light blue/silver racing jersey with a star of david on the back cut off my friend, and caused her to brake suddenly. she flipped over her bars and suffered a broken left arm and road rash. she'll be out 6 weeks. this cyclist had been veering in and out of a crowded road earlier at fairly high speed. worse, he clearly heard the crash but didn't bother to stop. if you saw it, or recognize this rider, please let me know. thanks.
