While riding on Route 6 in Peekskill today, far to the right on a four- lane stretch of road, I was clipped by a car for the first time. Fortunately they only...
When I lived in Peekskill, the drivers would run me off the road pushing my double stroller. Ride out on Washington Street toward Cortlandt. Kate Marshall 13...
Hi Katie, That's what I used to do from my old place. Now I live off Route 6 across from the Beach shopping center. There's no good way to get from here to...
I am guessing that you are an artist based on your e-mail address. Take a look at freelancersunion.org for very reasonably priced health insurance or at least...
I will be leading a Moonlight Ride on Tuesday nite, 8:00, out of Millwood. Details on Ride board. Hope many of you can join us. nick **************A Good...
Hi Susan- I'm not totally familiar with your area but, based on what I do know, I think it might be safer for you to go south along that street that abuts the...
Susan, I would recommend you always ride in a group. Motorists give groups more space, other cyclists can give you more warning about traffic, potholes, etc,...
Thanks, Bruce. That road is now completely rutted from construction and full of potholes, as well as gravel along the sides. It's very hairy riding, and I have...
Bruce, I rode quite a bit on roads in the Boston area, which takes a lot of skill and avoidance techniques, although they do have more bike paths than here...
You could get a dork mirror. You know, one of those that clips onto your glasses. Dorky, but apparently effective. Kate Marshall 13 North Highland Place ...
Well, I have mirrors on my bike, nice ones. Still doesn't help me if he suddenly gets too close and there's nowhere to go on the road... I think my next step...
btw, helmets used to be dorky. No longer. That said, I'm not sure how much mirrors help for safety. I'd rather focus on the road ahead and listen for the ...
You are right Deb. I just like to tease Victor about it. I would use one, but I find them distracting. I just ride with other people and try to make sure...
Just in the mail this week. Optimum, from Cablvision announces that effective 5/5/09, the following channels in my "package" while still available, will...
Bill - are you sure that you can't just connect the cable to the back of the digital TV and get the channels? Are you sure this doesn't just apply to analog...
Good for you Bill! Anyone can keep the old analog TV, and antenna in use by purchasing a $40 converter box that provides HDTV signal to your old set . By...
Very Sure. I called them the last time they removed channels and the only way to get them back was to rent a box. I already rent one with a DVR, but have it...
...  You're forgetting somebody important who's making quite a lot of money on this deal -- you!! Yes, you Adrienne.  You made $19 BILLION on this...
Hey Bill, when did you change your name to "Adrienne"? ;-) Thanks for the info, Jon. Still doesn't make it fair for the cable companies to force boxes to...
And that 19 billion is a rounding error in the latest financial bailout. We sold the rights to cheaply. In fact, they should not have been sold but simply...
Bill, F**K Cablevision, switch to FIOS, lighting fast internet, better quality TV, and service that does not go out when it rains. Verizon is also working with...
Unfortunately FIOS is not available on my street. As well, I watch a ridiculous am't of (garbage) TV. David Karel Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry ......
Susan, A basic question: Are you riding around in Peekskill for transportation or for pleasure? If for pleasure, there are several excellent roads in Peekskill...
Despite over 2 years of promises, FIOS, and DSL remain unavailable in my rural street in Eastchester. It was promised last June, it was promised this March,...
Hi Dave, Ideally it would be for both. But primarily for transport. Thanks for the tips-as I wrote to Katie, I used to ride on those roads too, but I just...
Susan, I know Croton has a committee that has written up a comprehensive plan for bicycles and pedestrians. It has very different politics that Peekskill, but...
