Nice kid, good runner, very interested in getting into riding. Son of a couple I know, neither of whom ride. I don't really know the family well enough to be involved and he'd not be into riding with an old guy like me anyway. Are there any good programs for young riders around? Any clubs that deal with the 15/16 year old set? It would be great to get him off to a good start.

Thanks for showing me how to clean my chain/cassette! It WAS easy. Thanks! See you on the road. /Jess

Late Post to the Ride List:

Meet at NJ side of GW Bridge.
Clip in and roll out at 8:30am.

Plenty of climbing including Henry Hudson/Alpine, Ash/Tweed and the rollers of 9W. Three short stops for snacks and bottle refill. No lunch break. 

Bike New York is this Sunday starting in Battery Park. 32,000 riders will head uptown and go thru Central Park.

Let's see...umm...32,000 x $270 each = $8,640,000.

Sounds like enough money to retrofit the traffic lights to blink yellow.
