Ticketing Outside of CP

Submitted by ROrvedahl on Mon, 02/07/2011 - 10:54pm

I got a ticket tonight - and attitude! - for not riding in the bike lane on 5th Avenue. The officer told me, "The mayor gave you bike lanes, and now you gotta behave." It's a court appearance, and I don't have the stomach yet to find out how much this will cost me. I didn't have a clue that not riding in a bike lane would land me a summons, The People of the State of New York vs. me. But there I was pulled over, along with a delivery guy and a mom riding to pick up her daughter. I'd be curious to hear if any other NYCC members are getting tickets outside of CP.

Club Meeting

Submitted by CWaaser on Mon, 02/07/2011 - 10:05pm

I just noticed that the announcement of tomorrow night's meeting (linked from the home page) says the time of the meeting is 11:00 p.m. Anyone who's already a member got the eweekly with the correct times, but it's possible some non-members might want to show up and find out what we're about. The correct times are: 6:45 dinner; 7:30 program. (I assume the social hour starts at 6:00.)

2011 cycling log?

Submitted by ATaruschio on Mon, 02/07/2011 - 5:36pm

hi all - does anyone have a link they'd like to share to a 2011 cycling log they've found? I am looking for something paper-based (ie., NOT electronic), that has blanks for very rudimentary info (really just mileage). Last year on this website there was a link to a one page pdf 2010 calendar/log that was perfect and I used it all year. This year I haven't found a new one (and I emailed the webmaster to see if there was going to be a new one but didn't get a response). Any info would be helpful. Many thanks in advance!

message board searches, how to?

Submitted by Charles K. on Mon, 02/07/2011 - 4:35pm

Would someone please explain to me how I can search this new message board? I'm looking for past posts on bike fitting in NYC for a friend in need of one, and I know that much has been written about that on this board. Thank you. Charles King.

tuesday hill repeats - game maybe

Submitted by crosscountrymule on Mon, 02/07/2011 - 4:17pm

so far, it looks like the game is off due to rain/snow. i'll hold out and make the call tuesday morning by 6am, though. i'm dying to ride. i'm tired of this wet winter, already. if tuesday's game is off, thursday's workout will be hill repeats.

BSTS

Submitted by asdf on Mon, 02/07/2011 - 1:59pm

The instructions for signing up for the BSTS say to email [email protected] starting February 7th (today). Is this correct, or is this last year's information?

Submitted by DWiener on Mon, 02/07/2011 - 1:18pm

Men's size 43
One pair Diadora sneaker style shoes
One pair Diadora MTB shoes
While both are size 43 and from the same mfg, the ones that are not sneaker style are a looser fit.
Both have 2 hole cleat mounts, both are used and currently have no cleats installed and are missing the cleat mount covers.
They can be picked up on the UWS
