Sunday Sourlands Semi-Classic. Sucko weather the West wind was ripping. Decided to bike to the start-finish. 42x18 was great for any Hills but tore me up on the flat pre/post ride. Glad to get out of the wind after 8+ hours outside and temps in the upper 30s.

120 miles, 7:57 minutes

3 rides today in NYC while waiting for my daughter to finish a dance audition...all done on the trusty CitiBike

total MT of 1:14

https://www.strava.com/activities/880912406 - ride the hudson greenway up to 125th and back down to 40th...battled the wind both ways!

https://www.strava.com/activities/880937786 - after a quick CitiBike exchange to avoid the >45 minute penalty, scooted down to the start of the High Line for a nice urban hike


https://www.strava.com/activities/881001948 - final leg from 31st and 8th up to 86th street...took a quick detour through Central Park for some MTBNY action...

It looks like Mike may be a little short-changed. I would think his SUM of Points should be 110.33. Not a real game changer, but it caught my eye and since @liong71er is probably out riding 100 miles somewhere, every little bit helps.

View attachment 48289

think I saw @liong71er on 206 today near Flanders at about 5pm. He was going north bound.

Was it a fellow wearing jeans with his quads exploding through them like bruce banners?

Just another great day to be on two wheels, albeit a few degrees colder. Cruising around town with the little ones.....The smallest of which just transitioned for the first time from a 12 " inch balance bike to a 14" pedal bike. While at the store, he points at the training wheels and says "daddy I'm a big boy, I don't need those". Life is an amazing journey at times.....

EDIT: were those last year's rulz? Guess this was a shutout, but I still had a great time.

Yeah I think that was last years rule, changed a little this year. I gave you the ST ride though, since it was a GPS thing.

One hour 6 mins. Took a picture of the remains of a big brush fire off the Henry hudson trails in Matawan. kudos goes to all the fire fighters that contained the blaze. The flames got pretty high,at one point when I just happened to drive by them on 35 last sat.

Can't figure out what vehicle was used in that mud, it looked pretty soupy.

02/27/2017: Harriman State Park. I had gone hiking with a few friends on 2/19. At that time there was still a decent amount of snow. So, I've been giving it awhile to melt and dry out. Things were pretty dry, but there were still some muddy spots. Most of this ride is woods roads anyway, so no trails were harmed.
