Hi,

I was wondering if there were any c level riders going to the sunday ride in CT?

The ride is officially closed to applications, so you would have had to have signed up already.

I imagine there has to be a few like myself who have signed up and might be going with a group or solo?

Lets meetup, its easier riding in a group.

Hey SIG A19 and A Classic Class of '11,

Now that you have xxxthreexxx ("strike-through" shows in draft but not in final copy?) TEN weeks of the SIG under your belt, it's time to throw some MORE off-the-bike FUN into the mix. Our second A19/Classic mixer of the season will take place next Tuesday, May 17. SIG participants,
leaders, alumni and friends are all welcome.

The deets for our second A-SIG SOCIAL are provided below.
(and you MAY be able to see flyer in addition at link below).

See you there!

Lucia, Alan & Basil (your friendly "A 19 and Classic Social Coordinators")

Bon Appetit!

I have a 55cm Columbus SLX bike equipped with a mix of Campy Super Record (1980s) era and Dura-Ace.  Has anyone had experience with trying to sell a somewhat-vintage bicycle, and where would you suggest?.....eBay, local shops, other?

Should it be broken down and sold off in bits, or as a whole?

Any thoughts about maximizing profits would be appreciated.

Thanks.

If we get a break, we'll try this cue tomorrow.

As Team Pink of the B16 SIG started the final leg of the graduation ride to Cold Spring, we were treated to some surprisingly lovely behavior by an unidentified motorist.  As we began what where then the painfully rolling hilss of 9D, a gentleman (he earned that sobriquet) in a pickup truck took a position about 50 feet behind our sweep, put on his flashers and escorted us all the way to Cold Spring.  At first, I assumed he was just looking for a turn, but he just stayed in position.  While many cars did pass us, they all had been slowed down first and dangerously large vehicles were forced to wait for appropriately straight or wide sections of roadway to get past.

I volunteered to marshal the Tour de Cure of the American Diabetes Association and the chairman of the marshals, Eric Rosenblum, asked me to solicit NYCC folks to get more marshals. The following is a message from Eric:

 

Have a great day of cycling while riding for a cause.

The club has it listed at 170'. That's pretty good for Manhattan. What's the traffic like? Ifigure if I get tuckered out after a few repeats it's a quick #1 home.

In London on business for a couple of days, the first time I have been here since really getting back to cycling last year. Found out that you can save almost 50% off a bike and equipment here through paying for a bike using pretax pounds like a health care savings account which I guess amounts to about a 50% savings at London and UK tax rates...nice deal!

But other observations looking at this city from a cyclist's perspective in addition to riding on the wrong side of the road:

-Lots of cyclists around, and drivers told me that the numbers had risen this year as energy prices rose.

-didnt see too many bike lanes if any, but did notice designated bike stops where bike given space to wait at lights.
