Requesting information about study of bicycle, pedestrian and vehicle safety

Submitted by MGewirtz on Sun, 11/28/2010 - 3:41am

In the last month or two there was an interesting post about a study concerning interaction among pedestrians, cyclists and vehicles. I think it may have come from a blog, and I believe it was posted just before the new message board format appeared because I have tried to search the board and cannot find it. It was about how pedestrians and vehicles view each other and how this differs from how they perceive cyclists. Does anyone remember making the post. Thanks for any help. Michael Gewirtz

wtb/seeking: speedplay adapter (3-hole)

Submitted by bhennesssey on Sat, 11/27/2010 - 10:42pm

Here out of town and my shoes just pulled from the cleats (still attached to pedal). luckily the only thing that busted was the plastic adapter (not the shoe or the cleat). it's used for three-hole shoes. wondered if anyone had one spare I could buy (perhaps you were smart enough to buy four-hole shoes).

they look like the pix below in the CL ad I just put up. It has three big holes that go right through and four small holes with nuts embedded. i only need one but will buy whatever both if you want to get rid of them. i don't need the hardware or shims or cleats etc (but again, if you wanna sell them, I'll take them).

so please tell me how much you want and where you are (or wanna meet). i'm@100th+westend

thanks

Any Kudos or concerns for either Fuji Altimira 2.0 or SST 2.0?

I'm in the market for a new bike and am considering either a Fuji SST 2.0 or a Fuji Altimira 2.0. Do we have any reviews of Fuji bikes or 1st hand experience? (I am an enthusiast that averages ~ 150 miles/week during the season and might start racing again next year Cat 4 or masters.)

Seeking Manhattan Based Riding Partners +/-B18

Submitted by Cmoore on Sat, 11/27/2010 - 12:26pm

Howdy, ya'll. I am trying to maintain/improve the fitness level I reached my first season by training through the winter.

I fall somewhere around the B18 rating, but am hoping to raise my game in preparation for the SIG in the spring.

I am looking for a people interested in working up from that skill level, and willing to meet up a few times a week.

I am relatively new to road riding in NYC (and in general), and have really only trained at Central Park and Palisades Park(River Road is my favorite 'loop"). Living near CP, this makes the most sense for me, but I am up for new rides, especially if weather is good.

what happened to all the cue sheets?

I have been remiss and offline for a few weeks .. am I missing something with the new website .. or are we missing most of the cue sheets .. can no longer find cue sheets for most of the rides that are listed .. or am I not looking in the right place ..

Greetings from Brooklyn. Weekday Riding in Prospect Anyone?

Submitted by MarcH on Fri, 11/26/2010 - 8:18pm

Hello All
I just joined the NYCC. I know its already the off season so to speak, but I was wondering if there was anybody interested in going for weekday rides in Brooklyn.

Here's the curveball: Typically I ride in Prospect Park on weekdays, starting anytime from 9AM to 3PM (I begin work at 5PM).
I know that isnt the most popular time for most folks, but thats just how my schedule works.
If that hasnt thrown you yet, read on...

I'm hoping to start riding in groups come springtime, or as soon as I'm back up for riding A/B 50+ at a decent pace. I'm coming off a knee injury and haven't been doing much extended riding, but I hope to change that ASAP and get back to my old routine (and maybe some new ones).
