Magical is the best word i can use to describe the event. I wish I did
not have to work on Sunday as I would have loved to jam with you guys!

I was thinking that we could have held the high ground and saved the
shire from any attacks the dark powers came with. There is no way they
could have scaled those walls without joining us in merriment and
fellowship.

Now that I think of it, I am certain the editor will be receiving angry

without helmets. (I'm not kidding or being facetious in the slightest). 
Note the riding gear is civvies. I suspect that may be an Olympus OM-1n the

wow, what an amazing time! it was great to meet all of you! i'm glad the 
location was a hit. here are a few 
photos: https://drive.google.com/open?id=13Q7J96lIPBjr2K1L9VF0C37CJd7uC3Ue

got some more here, i didn't take that 
many... https://www.instagram.com/fakemountains/

sorry for such a late start, i underestimated getting up there from the 
campground and especially with a single speed bike (2 even!)... i guess for 
next time i'd say pack a lunch for sure. didn't realize there weren't any 
options in the park itself. and i would definitely want to have a next 
time. thanks for making it so much fun, all of you!

Yes indeed, the Atlantis with the Tolkien quotes on the bars was discussed, 
along with you yourself, all in a lovely context of good storytellers!

I have been waiting for these posts! I have been living vicariously through 
dear, sweet Roberta, who has been funneling pictures and texts and emails to me 
so I can be included from exile here in Vegas (and I see Kai has been starting 
rumors about me - definitely not true, but I do aspire to rise to them ! 😂). 

You guys look great, your bikes look lovely and it’s true that it looks more 
like a reunion than a meet. Riv people are the nicest people. Did anyone get to 
ask Rachel about her rad daughter with the Tolkien-themed Atlantis? I’ve often 
wondered how that pair is getting along;  I’m sure they’ve  had many adventures 
by now. 

Don’t be shy about posting your tales and photos here - we love them! So glad 
you all had a wonderful time!

It was awesome! I left the house at 4:30 after just enough sleep and caught 
a couple trains to meet Roberta in NJ for a pleasant drive up to 
Minnewaska. We talked of Vegas (but not too much, what with the what 
happens in Vegas stays rule (though it's not so secret, so I'll whisper 
it... Leah's way cool)), great quotes from the rivlist, and art in Rocky 
Philadelphia. Stopped and filled up on maps and water at the Mohonk 
visitors center and happily drove up Cardiac Hill to meet the crew. Got 
called out by rangers for no helmet (putted it right on my head, little 
sweat, thanks for the warning Mark) and I took some, but never enough, 
pictures- https://photos.app.goo.gl/zKPe5qjBMy3CKoWb9

2019-09-22 Thread Austin B.

I really like seeing these pics of the East Coast RBW meetup this weekend. 
Looks like some fun riding with nice views and makes me want to get out on 
my Sam. There's pretty good riding here in MD but not so much with long 
distance vistas at elevation.

Hey everyone, Glad you all had a good day. The weather was perfect and that 
part of New York is beautiful. I see that you climbed up to the top to get

There was some matter of fact Rivendell bike admiration (and oh, my, the

an appreciation for the beauty, comfort, and usefulness of these bikes. I 
was impressed with our skills riding as a group on carriage roads that had

Kai, scratch that. I am thinking time from New Paltz to the train, not up 
in Minnewaska. It's a hike. I do think rail trail will take you through 
most, but it will be dark and long with some areas of traffic, and after a 
long day. I would look for plan B unless you head that way early afternoon.

"And as a reminder for those of us who still believe in free will for 
headgear options, helmets are mandatory for one or both of these park 
areas. So, bring a helmet."--Mark


To the group:  I packed an extra helmet, so if your head isn't too big and 
you need one, one is available.  It's probably marked as a Medium.

Hi Kai. I've never come from Minnewaska to pick up the train (in fact I 
rarely train it on recreational rides) but yes, there is an E-W rail trail 
that shoots off the one that runs North South from Gardiner to 
Poughkeepsie. Supposedly also one that goes from this N-S trail right up to 
Minnewaska. So you could probably do it mostly on trails. You can 
googlecheck, but I would guess, depending on your exact departure point, 
you could leave at 8:30 and still have a cushion. But at night on 
unfamiliar terrain, for myself, I would probably leave around 2 or 3 in the

 The parking lot up by the lake is great as you avoid the steep path up. 
 Never fear as if you park in Lower Awosting, you will get to enjoy the

 At any rate, I am driving a Black Honda ridgeline, (grey haired guy on

 the fog to clear... it will be good!

 Some info about the area...if you are coming in from the NYS Thruway, 
 you will head west on the state road towards New Paltz, New Paltz is a 
 college town, there are restaurants, motels, stores...even a starbucks! 
 then continue on up the Mt to Minnewaska.

 Also, if you have time or are staying over and you want some other

 south, some of it is unpaved.  Also the rail trail running east from town 
 will connect you to the "Walkway over the Hudson" state park...not to be 
 missed to ride across the Hudson river on a car free bridge, really nice 
 and this trail continues east for miles, nice flat paved. 

 For those that want more challenge, there are lots of gravel routes and

 the 
 carriage trail loop will be great for a meetup and social ride.

I am not on the Facebook so I can't post but we can gather on the lawn
between the parking lot and the lake. I will grab a picnic table where
you can see from the parking lot. Early arrivals will be able to park on
top, I would think that we picked a weekend between summer and leaf
peeping so not so crowded. Where or how do I drop a pin?

so when ya get parked, just make your way over towards the grassy area
between the parking lots and the lake, I will try to scope out a picnic
table or 2.

in the mornings, its generally dog walkers and hikers so it should be
all good. Once a few of us find each other, it will become obvious

one helpful thing to print or download is the park map, but they
probably have them at the gate.

I am going to get on site early Saturday am, I will try to park in the
Lower Awosting Parking lot and ride to the top, but if you want you can
park up in the lot by the lake (up on top), if that is full, the other
lot that is good would be the Lower Awosting Parking lot (west of the
main entrance).

The parking lot up by the lake is great as you avoid the steep path up.
Never fear as if you park in Lower Awosting, you will get to enjoy the
nice walk up (or ride if you got the gear for it) and you won't have to
go up the hill at the end of the ride!. So think of it like a roller
coaster, you gotta get up the launch hill, then we roll up and down
enjoying breathtaking views along the way. I think there is cell
service for most of the ride but if you want, you can download the route
here.

https://ridewithgps.com/trips/3699799

At any rate, I am driving a Black Honda ridgeline, (grey haired guy on a
orange and black Sam) we can gather up on top and visit till the campers
and late comers arrive. If memory serves, there is a paved lot on the
very top and a gravel lot, just below it. I am thinking that I will hang
out up on the top somewhere around the kiosk maybe making coffee and
waiting on the fog to clear... it will be good!

Some info about the area...if you are coming in from the NYS Thruway,
you will head west on the state road towards New Paltz, New Paltz is a
college town, there are restaurants, motels, stores...even a starbucks!
then continue on up the Mt to Minnewaska.

Also, if you have time or are staying over and you want some other
riding, there is a Rail Trail starting down town that will run north and
south, some of it is unpaved. Also the rail trail running east from
town will connect you to the "Walkway over the Hudson" state park...not
to be missed to ride across the Hudson river on a car free bridge,
really nice and this trail continues east for miles, nice flat paved.

For those that want more challenge, there are lots of gravel routes and
road routes...just consult Ride with GPS or some such app. I think that
the carriage trail loop will be great for a meetup and social ride.

2019-09-19 Thread REC (Roberta)

"Riding from the campground to the ride start/minnewaska parking lot is 
about 6 miles and 1,200 feet of elevation."

I'm trying to figure the best place to park--at the ride start or at Mohonk 
preserve and meet you at the campground.  

I usually ride up to 20 miles on flat ground at 10-11 mph (I can go longer 
on flat ground.) , so am not a strong rider.  I have a hard time on steep 
hills.  I don't know how to interpret the elevation information. Is this 
very steep?  Or, is it just unrelenting and, therefore, tiring.  Google 
says it's a 59 minute ride, which concerns me for a 6 mile stretch.  Please 
don't overestimate my ability (or age)  when responding. (Kai- can drop you 
off anywhere you want.)  

Thanks. 
Roberta

Attention day trippers/drivers!  I spoke with the campground and Minnewaska 
today.  You have two options for parking Saturday:

1. Arrive at Minnewaska by 10am to ensure you get a spot.  Apparently they are

2. Park at the visitor center (usually always spots).

In case it’s not clear, we’re riding across two parks/preserves so that’s why 
the permits/parking fees are so convoluted/confusing. Apologies in advance if 
it seems a little kludgy.

1. Everyone needs to pay for a shawangunk preserve permit.

Alright folks here’s three points that will be helpful wrangling campers, 
drivers and permits etc.

https://goo.gl/maps/o7VsC6uvaCTiZZGA7

(This is essentially a google maps route that starts at the campground, stops 
at the visitor center (permits) and ends at the ride start/minnewaska parking 
lot)

Meet at the campground parking lot at 10 if you’re camping and/or want to ride 
to the start.  Meet at the ‘Ride Start’/minnewaska parking lot at 11 ready to 
roll.  (Refer to directions linked above)

I think the only people that will need to pay for minnewaska are people that 
drive in/and park.  Everyone will need to pick up a permit at the Shawangunk 
Visitor Center whether you ride or drive (See directions above).

Of note:

Riding from the campground to the ride start/minnewaska parking lot is about 6 
miles and 1,200 feet of elevation.  The rest of the route is pretty tame. (the 
views and downhills are worthy of the effort imho)

FYI there’s a killer traditional German Restaurant called Mountain Brauhaus 
about 4 mins/.5 mi from the campground.  I plan on riding over around 6 on 
Friday night.  They’re only open till 9 pm so it gets a little packed/crazy on 
the weekends.  If anyone would like to join me, let me know and I’ll make a 
reservation (otherwise I’ll take a risk waiting for a bar spot).

Also there’s a nice deli across the street from the restaurant open 6:30 
am-6pm.  Great to-go sandwiches /snacks/drinks and the breakfast sandwiches are 
to die for.  So, if you’re not into camp food there’s other options very close 
by.

Kai,

I'll be taking the GSP to Route 17, which takes me right past the Mahwah 
station, so a 7:34 pickup would work well for me as well. 

So, whether it's by Roberta or me, we've got you covered!

7:34 at Mahwah station would be perfect if you want to go with 
me.You'll be longer on the train, shorter in the car.  The Garden State 
Parkway is closer to NY, so you'll be shorter on the train, longer in the 
car.

You  have 10 more days to decide and look for a NY ride.  If you want to go 
with me, just send me a PM and we'll coordinate off line.  At least you 
know you have a ride, even if you do need to get up middle of the night to 
start the trip!  :)

Thanks Bob! Thanks Roberta!
Looks like the earliest I can get to Mahwah train station is 7:34. Then there's 
an 8:30something that's probably too late. So yeah, if 7:34 in Mahwah can work, 
great! Does that work for the Garden State parkway too? Maybe 287 is the 
parkway? If there's a possible two rides, perhaps I can get some company on the 
trip to Mahwah with a fellow New Yorker? Carpooling is caring...
Thanks again!!

Not real close, but I'm leaving from Morris County 7-7:30 am, coming back 
that evening.  There is a Lakeland bus to Parsippany and a train (NJ 
transit, perhaps?) that runs to Denville, both fairly close for me to pick 
you up.  I'll be driving up I287 to I87, so if you find a train that takes 
you along my route (Franklin Lakes or  Mahwah, perhaps?), I can pick you up 
there, also.  Offer is open to Kai or anyone else. 

It it's raining, I'll probably still go up, but I won't be biking.

Hi Kai,

I'll be driving up the Garden State Parkway from Cranford, NJ on that 
Saturday morning (and returning home that night). Also, I'll have room for 
a second bike on the rear rack of my car next to my Clem. Will that work? 
Will you be able to get across the Hudson? Maybe meet at a train station?

Hey Alex! I hope all is well out in the middle!

I don't ever go there during the "season" but I bet it does get crowed
during the summer. I have always gone after Labor Day and never
experienced a crowd, mostly just pass a hiker or 2.

another Sunday activity would be to break camp, stop in the diner in New
Palz, then ride the "Walkway over the Hudson" park, there are several
places to park along the rail trail, then about 3 miles to the Hudson
River crossing...a must see if you have never been., that would put you
close to the thruway for heading home.

rockclimbing and it is a special place that i'm sure looks great from two

and it didn't seem to be a big deal to have multiple tents on one site.  if

2019-09-10 Thread spencer robinson

Thats the basic loop around the park...it is beautiful, the views are 
breathtaking, you will need lots of time for picture taking, film camera 
discussions, and general lollygagging / coffee making etc. There are more miles 
if your so inclined, heck you can bomb the public roads and go to New Platz and 
up the trail to Kingston, stop in and see Bryan at Utility Bicycle works, just 
whatever, the Hudson Valley is probably one of the most scenic and historic 
places in the USA. 

The Route is stone/gravel carriage trails, no cars and this time of year, not 
so crowded. The route rolls up and down, no killer hills except the first path 
up from the main road and like they say...I never go for a walk without my 
bike.  I have done the loop on a single speed and a Raleigh sports 3 so its ok. 
700x 23c tires might make the ride a little harsh but I don’t think that is a 
concern with Riv folks.

here is a route my friend Spencer sent me, i thought we could try this and 
do more if people want. 

https://ridewithgps.com/trips/3699799

re: fees, i was reading this here and thought if we wanted to ride more, we 
could access more stuff by paying the fee at Mohonk (noted in link below), 
which gives you access to Minnewaska as well as the two Mohonk properties:

i don't know anything beyond that. i've never been, just thought it seemed 
like a good location. i am open to suggestions too.

There's a fee to bike, or a fee to park? I've never paid a biking fee, 
though when I drive I pay a $10 parking fee. That's for Minnewaska. Do they

2019-08-22 Thread Ben Obrien

thanks Roberta!

FYI anyone interested, i created a Facebook event page, so we can get an 
idea of how many people...

https://www.facebook.com/events/577374356128518

no pressure to rsvp but it's there if ya want to. 

i'm getting there friday evening, just to camp and meet people. really only 
riding we are doing is saturday, sorry if that wasn't clear. we can ride 
sunday too if people want. 

this is the route that Spencer shared as a 
possibility: https://ridewithgps.com/trips/3699799  i'd be into this and 
maybe a little more, with a coffee outside stop along the way.

D'oh! Silly Wally!  $7 each on the patch.  I'm getting 3 :)
Get yourself at least one.  Then another one to share.  And another one

 Hit me up offline w/ your name/email/location, subject the email ‘Rivmoot

Not that this is an issue for all, but kid's Spring Break is the week of 
April 15th.  We already were planning on a bike trip on Rails to Trails 
locations south for that week, so the tip about the Silver Comet Trail was 
great.  But coming North from DC works also.

I am thinking the early spring idea is before that, though.  I will sit

I'll do the ride in Minnewaska (I have family halfway between Philadelphia,

100 radius of philly.  However, I don't camp, so will need lodging option
