The Park Ave and connecting streets from Brooklyn Bridge were closed for cars
the past Saturday and will be closed the next two Saturdays also. If you ever
wanted to ride on Manhattan but were scared of the traffic, this is your moment.

I am training for a century, so I am will not ride the Summer streets. I am
going to ride to Nyack. Anyone who wants to ride Columbus Circle - Nyack -
Columbus Circle this Saturday (about 50 miles with some serious hills), let me
know.
