Dear Commissioner Simpson,

I am writing to ask you to rescind the ban on the boarding and deboarding of bicycles at low-level platform NJ TRANSIT train stations.

Since 1998 NJ TRANSIT has allowed bicycle access on all off-peak trains at all stations. Many bicycling passengers not only use their bicycle to get to their station of origin but also take their bicycles with them on the train so they can then ride the last few miles to reach their final destinations.

I just want to see if there are any other Brooklynites that would be interested in some early morning (6:00AM) laps/hill repeats in Prospect Park Tuesday (2/7) & Thursday (2/9). Trying to jump start the season and get ready for the A19 SIG; anyone welcome just email.  

Thanks,

Gordon Finn

I'm planning to join the SIG classes and I'm from Queens, I need advice from anybody on where I can find a good parking spot near CP

Temps in the mid-30's morning, climbing into the mid-40's by afternoon.  Should be a nice day.

Adrienne & Bill

Great Picture of you guys in the local P.R. news paper.

Join me for a trip to Nyack via River Road and Bradley/Tweed.  We'll get some hills in and have some in the tank left to watch the Giants win later in the day.

Sudnay 9:00 am at Grant's Tomb

A case of Too Big to Fail?

At on point you realize there were 2 people riding it.

I think I'll stick to bikes and skis.

I love the finding that the massaged muscles made more mitochondria as well.

For the record, we've known for quite some time that muscle soreness is not caused by lactic acid accumulation. Any therapist who is making that claim has not kept current on the research.
