    Not to side with Milloy, but why is it that cyclists seem to have an image problem in the first place?

    I’ve had that happen a lot over the years. Using a bell helps, but honestly, if I see headphone cords these days I don’t even bother giving a warning. If they really wanted to hear whats going on around them, they wouldn’t be wearing fricking headphones. :rolleyes:

    Hey, not all of us headphone wearers are oblivious. It helps not to listen to music though.

    You do NOT have to produce identification. You are required to provide your name and address if they ask. They may NOT detain you to verify your information. They may detain you to issue you a summons, but that’s it.

    What’s not said in the article is the driver can file a claim against the rider.

    My most sincere apologies for that last comment. I’ll do better next time.

    Arlington Loop. Change it and we will have problems.

    Chimney structure near Hidden Pond

    Kristin, a team of volunteers uncovered that fireplace in 2007 when
    we did some impressive vine removal. Isn’t it wonderful? We can’t tell
    if a house used to be there, or perhaps a warm-up station for the
    employees at the old concrete factory there.

    Anyway, the Cherrydale Parks and Open Spaces Committee think this is a
    PERFECT spot for marshmallow roasts and New Years Eve campfire. But we
    don’t have permission yet. In the meantime, we’ve already had one Eagle
    Scout project at that spot, hence the concrete and bench and a now
    overgrown tiered path to the chimney. Then this July 8th, in the
    evening, a team of church volunteers will be pulling more weeds on the
    hill. And then another eagle scout will lead a team to remove the
    brambles and invasive vines from the chimney to Hidden Pond. We may even
    get a little foot bridge over the hidden stream. Then in the Fall,
    another team will head from the other side of the pond clearing invasive
    vines until one could manage to walk around the pond completely. We are
    not going for a manicured look, and we want lot’s of wild life to feel
    comfortable there, not including the kind that throw beer bottles.

    When the brambles are removed, I think it is possible we’ll get approval
    for a New Year’s Eve campfire, but NOT NOW :-)

    If you have interest in volunteering for vine removal, send me a note.

    Thanks!

    Subject: Cherrydale Listserve — Chimney structure near Hidden Pond

    I was wondering if anyone knows the purpose of the chimney-like stone
    structure off the bike path near the Hidden Pond in Cherry Valley park?
    Can we use it to roast marshmallows sometime? :) Thanks!
