It's the Southwest corner of Central Park. (Grand Army Plaza is in Brooklyn - Prospect Park 
). Here
There's a fountain there and you should see some bicyclists hanging around.

No worries - that's what we're here for! It's very easy for you to get there via bike - just keep heading west 
One thing of note, I believe the 59th St bridge lets you off a little north of 59th. North of 59th the park's in the way so you do want to meander down to 59th and just head across.
Meanwhile I wound up watching the Sox/Yankees game and glad I did! Wow! But am going to leave now to get in some extra miles before getting to CP - txt me if you have any other questions!

Thanks so much to Air for keeping me that way, and fixing my seat. Oh, and the gatorade. Oh, and the turnstile. Thumbs up to Time's Up...can't wait to do more of their rides. We missed you, slvoid and jyo. Goodluck with the buttcrack of dawn, Air!

For the ride itself I have to be there at like 5 or something like that...but I get food so it evens out (yeah, I'm that easy). Tomorrow is at 8...but by the time I get up and get going....

I know they meet at GAP for the PP ride so that was the first thing I thought of.
