Yes, by "River Road," I mean HH drive (most folks call it River Road, I've found). And by "closed roads," I'm honestly not sure. The reason for my uncertainty is that the park authority will often gate off portions of the road itself at many times of the year, but will state on its website that the full road is open to cyclists. That notwithstanding, the cop who stopped me indicated he would ticket me if I road out the way I came -- through a gated off section. What I suspect his commander actually meant was bits of road like Dyckman hill, where cycling is prohibited outright, year-round. But honestly your guess is as good as mine.
