If you are interested in volunteering for the TANYC Training Leaders Program (TLP), please contact bobcowin@cowin-tech.com. This isn't coaching, so no experience is necessary - just a willingness to lead a few people out to River Road, Nyack, Westchester, Piermont, etc. Leading rides on a weekly basis is not expected - but the more leaders we get, the more rides we can offer.

| Riverside Park offers a choice of paths, including the river path, the upper trail, and Riverside Dive itself. The 72nd Street to 120th Street route is approximately 4M. Heading a little north to 125th Street will reward you with a view of Grants Tomb.
