Hi

Hi
I consider myself a c rider and I ride in the early morning around Central Park. I ride from 5:15-6:30am and ride between 8-10 miles. It takes me 37 minutes to ride 5.11 miles. I usually start at east 84th street and do a full loop around, via the intersecton at 103rd, because I don't go up the big hill at 103rd. I go back around to east 84th street and then one more time through 103rd, up 96th, to west 84th, And, I cut over at Sheeps Meadow to go east. Or, I start at east 84th, left on 13rd, right at 66th to 72nd, and left on 72nd. I do this loop twice before heading up to east 84th.
Seven Cycles Demo Rides - Sunday 4/13 - Grant's Tomb
I just noticed this post in the marketplace and was not sure if it made sense to post it here as well so more people see it.
I have no affiliation with Seven Cycles other than when my wife and I lived in the Boston area for a few years I worked with Patria to have Seven build me my custom Seven Axiom SL which I still own and ride several years later.
BSIG Sunday Rain Out
No BSIG ride tomorrow.
See you all at the BSIG Social this Monday!
BSIG Nyack Ride Rained Out Tomorrow/Saturday. No Decision for Sunday Yet.
Tomorrow/Saturday's Nyack ride is rained out. There is just too much rain in the forecast.
Let's be hopeful that we can ride Sunday. Go/No Go decision will be made mid-afternoon tomorrow.

What's the deal with this spoke pattern?
A shop I use in south Jersey has a used bike I'm considering. The wheels come with a spoke pattern I'm not familar with:

What do you call this pattern? I assume the low number os spokes reduce weight, but can I expect this kind of wheel to survive real world riding in and around NYC?
Thanks
Portugal Anyone?
I am putting a ride together 5/21-27 but I may shorten it to 23-27 to keep it lower cost. If interested, email me - great riding available at C, B and A level! [email protected]
Car doored, lawyer?
I was hit by a car door, broke my nose, finger, tore my rotator cuff. Driver and passenger left without stopping. I got the plate and reported to NYPD. Anyone recommend a lawyer in NYC?
Saturdays vs Sundays?
Just a random observation that ride listings for Saturday vs Sunday are at about a 6:1 ratio.
Why?
Touring Trailer Tips
A friend (no, really!) Is looking to do a self-supported tour this summer and asks whether one wheeled or two wheeled trailers are preferred. I have a vague recollection that heavy duty tourists preferred the BOB trailer because of its single wheel (it tracked better ), but I’d be curious to know what the current thinking is.
