Bolded ain't happening, but I'm curious - is that a school zone issue or a traffic safety issue? And what exactly is the East Line speedway? I don't see it on the map.

I'll look at Washington County. One thing to keep in mind is while house space is good, we're very willing to pay to get acreage as well; the big appeal of the second and third houses are that they sit on several acres, with few neighbors even outside of that. Remember, I was the one who wanted a moat, but I'll settle for a thick forest.

Towns of Stillwater and Saratoga on the east side of Saratoga lake are good for acreage and great riding. Washington County is the same and the cycling is the best in NY (imo).

East Line speedway is what I call East Line Rd. Lots of cars driving well over the 45 limit.

Meaningless without knowing your average speed and, along those lines, Strava or it didn't happen.

It's a place called Heatonist, I think that it's in Williamsburg, but close to Greenpoint. Little shop, nothing but hot sauce. They provide/sell all of the sauces on Hot Ones. It's a 15 min bike ride from BK Heights.

Ah... even with that it took me a minute to find it. Thank you! Will keep that in mind and look to stay on the east side of that if we do go there. And if it's ok I'll be PMing you if that becomes more likely s well.

Average speed on the straightaway: 3 mph, probably.

Found it on a map. Yeah. Just south of Greenpoint. They have a store in the Chelsea Market. Love that place.

Did you get to Brooklyn Bridge Park? Amazing transformation over the years. When I first started riding to B’Heights in the late 90s you could see the area from the Promenade. Pretty much vacant piers and buildings. Now it’s a wonderful park

Yes and it's been going on for quite a while. Beer got silly and strange years ago, starting with the over-hopped IPA and Belgian styles, both of which are a real chore to drink.

The Brooklyn skyline, as a whole, was surprising to me, though. The Williamsburg Savings Bank tower used to be the most prominent building, now it's almost just a footnote.

I know. Try to find a nice, chewy Porter these days. Anchor makes one, but nobody stocks it. Biggest problem in the beer market seems to be balance - there's more to life than IPAs.
