Sugar Cayne
The Sugar Cayne Bike Fest is only 2 weeks away and I thought I’d give you a look at the little twist I create for my long Jump comp! As you’ll see in the video you’ll have to do the whole rhythm section on the last straight before you launch for your long jump. It’s gonna be fun! It’s only $10 to enter this comp and it’s limited to only 30 riders. There’s a cash prize for this comp so come through!

Recommendations: If you are coming through the greater New York City area:
Between 6 AM and 7PM you should avoid the George Washington Bridge (I-95 through NYC). Try I-287 over the Tappan Zee Bridge, or I-84. Between 7PM and 6AM the George Washington Bridge usually flows pretty well. If you have e-z pass, use the center toll lanes marked for e-z pass only. They are no-stopping lanes.
Between 3PM and 7PM you may want to avoid I-287 and the Tappan Zee Bridge (Thursday & Friday). The least traffic into Connecticut is by I-84. If you take the Tappan Zee Bridge and have e-z pass, use the left lane, the no-stopping express lanes for e-z pass are on the left side of the toll plaza.
If you take I-287 over the Tappan Zee Bridge between 11AM an 7PM you want to avoid I-95N. Two options:
1 If you have a non-commercial vehicle, no camper or trailer, take the I-287 to the Hutchinson River Parkway, which becomes the Merritt Parkway, (rt.15) in Connecticut. Follow the directions from the Merritt Parkway above.
2. If you have a truck, commercial vehicle, camper, or are pulling a trailer, take I-287 to I-684N to I-84E. Follow the directions from I-84 above.
