another reason to move to Long Island.

[Mr. Gantlet]

after reading this group and seeing how many of you are from long island
not to mention it must be pretty fun to ride there. i am thinking about moving - hmm unless - i dont supose any of you would rather trade all that fun riding in Long Island for the fabulous stop and go riding i do.

Hi, Mr. Gantlet --
I was actually riding all over Manhattan last weekend (see my post re: Sunday Ride, 5/16). It wasn't like 'real' Manhattan riding, though, because we had a police escort for the whole ride, and didn't have to worry about traffic lights or automobile traffic.
I used to ride in Manhattan more often many years ago.
Maybe you can catch up with some of us 'Long Islanders' for some riding soon.
Ride safe.

You mean ride where there are, crazy pedestrians, Steel plates big enough to swallow me whole and, (gulp) yellow cabs?

Sorry Mr. G you gonna have to at least come out to the Queens/Nassau border.
