Fun Random NYC Night Rides
 

Looks like jyossarian and I will be doing a night ride Manhattan loop next Thursday (December 7th) - PM me if you'd like to go! Will be sometime after work and car moving issues (7-8-9? we're not too sure yet). Usually it takes me about 2:20 of actual riding and 3 hours total with traffic stops and whatnot - about 30 miles in total. Not out to set speed records but explore some really scenic areas at night. Lights would be a really good idea - some areas are hard for me to see even with light.

Also, don't forget the Times-Up ride this Friday!

I kept the title vague so whenever anyone is planning on going at night post here.

Bump - tomorrow's the 7th! Anyone else besides jyossarian and I? We'll be kicking off on the East Side greenway at 78th at 6:15.

I'd like to take advantage of this weather! Anyone want to go for a ride tomorrow (Tuesday) night, say around 7ish? Perhaps a Manhattan loop (~30 miles) or ride out to Coney Island (~20 miles) for some beer and hot dogs?

Thursday works better for me. Might rain tomorrow too.

Can't do Thursdays for a while :( Actually lately Tuesday nights are the only time I have unless it's after 11 PM or so (which would be fine for me but I have a feeling not for many others :) ). And the rain is barely anything from what I'm reading.

Wanna do 7:30pm from prospect tomorrow? My gf wants to come along but shes getting out late.

I could go to Prospect Park. Where should I meet you?

Looks like this is more of a possibility :( Oh well - maybe next week? At any rate I'll see you Friday for the Times-Up ride!

Hot dogs and beer? Coney gets my vote, but I can't make it tonight. Do we have to fight the Turnbull A.C.'s on the way out there?

How about next Tuesday?

Turnbull A.C.? If we get into a fight I'd have your back! (on the way out the door) :D

Next Tuesday is a definite maybe for me. Take Ocean Pkwy all the way out?

The last time I went we went down 4th Ave until we got onto the bike path in the 60's or 70's, took that the rest of the way out.

You took Shore Parkway? Was it windy?

How about this wed or thursday?

Wasn't too windy.

So, no rain tonight. I went down to the ferry, then back up in a Manhattan loop with a ton of climbing up in Inwood Park all the way to the top of that cliff. Boy I'm tired - but need to get a bit in shape for Saturday :)

I can do nights after 11 PM on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays.

Let's shoot for next Tuesday for a Coney Island trip! Jyossarian and I can pick you guys up on the way out there :)

Next tuesday I'm heading out to vegas until sunday heh. Of course I'm always down for a ride next sunday.

Doh!

I'd be up for a ride after the 5 BBC. Actually - a ride out to Coney Island after that day would be awesome.

Oh, and I have a few other people who are interested in next Tuesday so it looks like I'm doing it one way or another.

Still seriously thinking about this - any takers?

I'll be up for cruising around on sat evening.

Wait - Sunday or Saturday?

Which part of Sat didn't you understand? :p

Next Tuesday, being May 8, you're talking about a trip to Coney Island? After 11 p.m.? Why so late?

No, Tuesday after work...say 7, 7:30 ish. The other nights I can't.

Saturday I have an all night blues party to go to if I sleep after our ride up to Nyack :)
