Bad advice about tire pressure in the ride listings
"Pump up tires to the pressure specified on the sidewall."
Sorry, but this is very bad advice. The pressure specified on the sidewall is arbitrary and isn't the ideal pressure for any given person. I always run my tires below the recommended pressure, with no risk of pinch-flats.
Please change it to "make sure your tires are properly inflated," or something to that effect.
How can I view the details of a past ride?
I was just trying to search for the listing of the ride that I co-led yesterday, but it's nowhere to be found. I can find details of future rides under the "Current Rides" listing, but where have all the past rides gone?
I went to "Submit a Ride" and found this: "To see details of rides already submitted for this month, please click here (the wrods "click here" being almost invisible against the dark blue background). But the link just brought me back to the same page I was on.

State and city Rules
The Safety section of the Website says the laws will be posted. I have not found them . Have they not yet been posted?
62º Monday! The Weather Wussy does River Rd. Boathouse at 11:00.
I'll be in Statue of Liberty-wearing-helmet jersey.
19-20 on flats; 4-6 on hills. Oh, scoff if you will; but can you keep a bike upright at 4MPH?
Restricting the Rides Listing to Members
Isn't it self-defeating to restrict the ride listings to members? I'll be that alot of members joined up after coming on a few rides and deciding the club was worth joining. I think that was the case with me.
Northern NJ and NY routes
Sorry if I am asking a question that has been answered. I am not finding a way to search the message board archives.
I'm interested in more routes from the GWB and remember being on a ride new to me that the leader said was an NYCC ride. Are there any rides/routes/cue sheets that use northern NJ and possibly southern NY routes? I'm fairly familiar with the north/south running roads east of Sickletown and Strawtown, but this ride seemed to amble around further west. Perhaps around Westwood as far as Wyckoff and perhaps as far north as Saddle River. Anyone familiar with any rides/routes in that area?

Anyone else bringing a child to the holiday party?
I'd like to bring my daughter to the holiday party. She's in fifth grade and would be happy to have another kid to hang out with. She has two Nintendo DS's and plenty of games to share. Send me a note if you're bringing a child and maybe we can plan to find each other at the party.
