Good pukey ride with JP on the inner roads of NJ. I couldn't dish it out like the past few rides we did together, but I almost puked once, so it was good for me!
There's still snow in Bergen and Rockland. In the shady spots on the bigger hills, there was an inch or two remaining and there was clearly remnants of plowing. On the fallen tree/downed power line contest, the damage is everywhere and apparent The light at the intersection of E. Clinton and Engle in Tenafly (it's the turn after the downhill on the sunday ride) was out, and there were hastily implanted stop signs all four ways. Lots of power lines on the ground, particularly in the northern reaches. Several trees were still in the ground, but hanging precipitously over the road. We rode through several closed roads, but Marc cautioned me away from the one where we could see a power line holding up a tree.

because yeah...even though a little "electrolysis" would make me smooth enough to be the main attraction at next year's Halloween party in the Village, I don't think the memory loss, uncontrollable ticks and inability to form complete sentences would have been worth it.
anyone up for two hours total from the GWB tomorrow morning?
Tito and I are riding tomorrow at 9am from the NY side of teh GWB

doing an hour out and an hour back

no laughing, no talking
Risky plan : if you have a headwind on the way back, you might never get home!
Wednesday morning. Meeting at the GWB, NY Side,9:40am. For three hours plus over in NJ. Hills, jokes, jams, you name it.

anyone care to join?
i'm down for this

edit: though i'd like to keep it to 3 hours. can we do that?
Sure. I can manage that.
^ well, he didn't!

jp led me on an almost-4hour sprint through new jersey traffic

dude was flying today . . . i was suffering like a dog

still, short sleeves in November? i'll take it, even if it costs a pound of flesh, as it did today
Folks, I've been bad about checking on here...actually, I've been bad about training period. School is working me over, as usual.
However, I am still trying to make it out AT LEAST once a week, and Mondays and Fridays are the days. Holler if you want to do this.

I'll be going over earlier, if anyone wants to join - 9am sharp, NY side of GWB. Riding to Nyack.
i can get on this, meet you somewhere over the nj/ny border, assuming you're coming up through at least piermont then branching off somewhere? this cray cray weather means i'll be sporting hairy legs and bare knees. willy dc, ping me where a good meetup spot would be, 845-270-0120
I'll be at the bridge at 9.40 to meet y'all, backpack on.
I'll be there.
sorry mattie - i only just saw your post

tito and stefan went up to nyack, but jp, kevin and i turned around at alpine

next time!
i caught tito in nyack and rode the 5 minutes or so with him to his internship, then just dicked around for 2.5 hours. good way to spend a wednesday, no complaints here.
weekday bros,

i've got wednesday and friday morning free this week. 830 at brooklyn bridge/930 nj side of gwb, but flexible. either day, or both.
Friday possible for me. I'll holler.
Alright, this is happening. 830 bb 930 gwb nj side.
Gentlefriends - I will be riding to Nyack for work again this Wed. Departing 8.45 sharp from NY side of GWB. Will be taking 9W, not RR.
Come join for all or part of one-way ride; I'll be staying in Nyack all day.
Tito,
I can't make it at that time, but about an hour later, expect to be at the ny side of the GWB. Up for a nice spin.
Sorry to have missed ya, JP - I gotta be at my internship in Nyack at 10am, so Wednesdays have been 9am or earlier @ the GWB.
anyone doing Friday this week?
