can anybody who attended the meeting give a brief summary of what went down?

More snow! More ice! We're going snowshoeing on Thursday! Care to join us? [email protected]

Hi Everyone,

I'm in my 20's and would love to learn how to bike. Are there any resources in the NY area that help people like me to get started during this time of year?

Thank you!
I hope to join some the events soon.

Very best,
Marina

"...The first issue--whether cyclists must obey the orders of law enforcement officers--was central to the "motion to dismiss" hearings for Tony and Ryan. As the Court held, if the cyclist hasn't broken a traffic law, then the cyclist can't be lawfully arrested, and the order to pull over is itself unlawful. Therefore, if the order is unlawful, the cyclist is not required to obey the order, and can't be arrested for failure to comply. Now, this is the law in Ohio, but it is based on 4th Amendment jurisprudence, so the jurisprudence in other states should be similar. If somebody knows of contradictory 4th Amendment jurisprudence in another state, please let me know...."

the weather gods don't want us to ride.

Hi guys,

I am selling a used RealAxiom V4 trainer. (Yes, even with this weather outside.) It was lightly used last season but hasn't been used at all this year.

For those who aren't familiar with this, it's a "virtual reality" trainer that you hook up to a computer monitor. You can create your own workouts (increasing/decreasing resistance), pick from some of the pre-programmed workouts, or use a virtual course. (I have two courses: the Etape du Tour course in Limoges and the World Road Race course in Verona.) When you ride the virtual course, the trainer automatically adjusts resistance based on whether you're going up or down a hill, etc.

Here's a review of the unit:

The Yellowstone CycleFest is the most scenic and adventurous cycling event held in North America. This annual cycling event will be based in beautiful West Yellowstone, MT on July 23-30, 2011. This strikingly beautiful tour will be visiting two national parks, three national forests and three states. Though bicycling will be will be the focus of this yearly event, attendees will have numerous additional adventure sport options from which to choose. Each morning throughout the tour riders will embark on an extraordinary 35-62 mile fully supported road cycling tour through the unsurpassed mountain scenery within and surrounding Yellowstone National Park.

Just a general note that (until the next snow storm) main and secondary roads in Westchester are very bikeable.
