Hi everyone- PLEASE check the tally link on the home page- if the number of rides lead by you during 2010 is not correct, and you have not yet contacted me, please do so by Friday eve. If the number of rides you have lead is 12 or more, also send me your jersey size. I will be on vacation for a week, and will be giving Ellen a list of the jerseys to order before I leave.

Nautilus Stationary Bike for Sale
Hey guys. My wife and I have a barely used Nautilus stationary bike that we're putting up for sale since we're moving out of state. The model # is U514. It's listed at $599 but we bought it on Amazon for about $400. Less than a few months old. It comes with a Polar HR chest strap, has HR monitor pads on the handle bars and is super quiet during use. Here's a link to the Amazon site: http://www.amazon.com/Nautilus-U514-Upright-Exercise-Bike/dp/B00275R27K/...
We're asking $200 for it. Live in Manhattan. Send an email if you have questions. Thanks.

2 New Approaches to the Central Park Problem
There may be two other approaches to solving the problems of cyclists use of the roadway in Central Park:
The roadway was a dirt carriage way until the 1930s. Robert Moses, then NYC Parks Commissioner paved the roadway and made it available for motor vehicle use. Knowing Moses' propensity for acting unilaterally, did he do this legally? Is it a legal roadway?
The Motor Vehicle Laws are State Laws. Perhaps the approach is to convince the State Legislature to amend the Motor Vehicle Laws to provide for "sensible" use by cyclists of all public parks in the state.

PARIS (AP)—The Leopard Trek team is denouncing reports that Swiss cyclist Fabian Cancellara is using a revolutionary system on his bike that gives him a substantial advantage over his rivals.
Following a report in La Derniere Heure newspaper, team manager Brian Nygaard told Cyclingnews.com on Wednesday that the technology known as Gold Race is not used by his team but added the time-trial world champion might have used it when racing with the Saxo Bank team.
“There’s a bit of confusion here,” Nygaard said. “I think they might have been attached when he was still working with (bike manufacturer) Specialized, but I can guarantee you 100 percent that we are not working with these people at all.”
