Is a Campmor trip worth it for a tent and sleeping bag?
I'm pretty sure I saw a ride to Campmor posted in the fall, and I also saw the cue sheet to Campmor. I'm looking for a sleeping bag and tent and I'm wondering if the trip is worth it, considering the offerings in manhattan such as REI and Paragon. Mind you, I've never been to any of these stores.
I'm sure I'd enjoy the ride to Campmor whether I bought anything or not.
Thanks!

Cat nip for Bike Geeks - Brooklyn Museum Filmfest Friday, May 27 @ 7pm
A non-cycling friend forwarded to me (I get this a lot lately, I wonder how I got the rep as the "weirdo" who cycles obsessively . . . ) this event at the Brooklyn Museum:
"Streetfilms is proud to present a selection of their latest and greatest transportation films. From the roadways of China and Copenhagen, to those of Oakland and Brooklyn . . . . " you get the picture.
I'd usually try to see something of this nature, but I'll be, humm, cycling in the Berks.

New to NYC, anyone have good routes to share?!
Hi,
I just moved to NYC and other than looping central park, I have no idea where to ride!
I'm more of a late day rider - so it's hard for me to join those 7am weekend rides. Does anyone have some solo-friendly routes to share? I'm getting back from a laaazy winter but have a centure tour around the cornor (Discover Hudson Valley ride) so anything from short 20 milers to epic century routes would all be helpful.
Also there are any C riders going out in the afternoon, I'd love to join.
I'll make it to a group ride to meet you all eventually! Until then, any suggestions on where to go would be great.

B16 laps in Central Park - 5:45am Thursday - canceled
I don't think there's any chance that these soggy roads will be dry by 5:45am. I hope to see you next week.

Locking skewers or what?
Greetings;
For the last 20 years or so I've been commuting on a '68 Raleigh Sports named "Rusty". Not too many people want to touch, let alone steal Rusty, so I don't worry much.
Moving uptown and will have a longer trip, so I thought I'd press my lovely old road bike, which has QR hubs, into service as a commuter. Have looked at locking skewers, and these Pitlock things, but I don't know much.
Would appreciate any well informed opinions on the subject.
Regards,
ks

Thanks to all who reached out. I was able to offer the admission to a club member.

My son and I registered for the Bloomin' Metric, but he is not able to make it after all. Accordingly, I have a place if anyone is interested.
Please email me at [email protected].
Thanks.
