Tour de Bronx Tee shirt

Submitted by NSherran on Mon, 11/04/2019 - 6:47pm

The instructions in the email for getting the Tour de Bronx tee shirt are wrong. you have to pick "My Packaging" and put in the dimentions 17 x 11 x 14 and declare a value. UP to $100 is free. If you do not do it this way ground service will not show up.

This is the correct email address it must be exactly like this

Calling All Ed Fishkin Disciples

Submitted by PStorey on Sun, 11/03/2019 - 2:21pm

If you've ever listened to Dr. Ed explain how to change a flat, you saw him use the ever-elusive, utterly unavailable, VAR tire tool. At the Philadelphia Bike Expo this weekend, I found a source for these in the United States (they used to be only spottily available from England). MB Rules forbid me from advertising this unique and wonderful product, but if you want to know where to get one, email me at [email protected].

Barrier Back Up On NJ Side of GWB

Submitted by RSchmon on Fri, 11/01/2019 - 5:51pm

Just a heads up: a barrier is back up on the NJ side of the GWB, that I understand was put in last Wednesday.  It is very narrow, probably less room than the one we had removed last spring.  A friend will post a picture shortly on this threat.  The good news is that the security guy in the white car that parks at the point where the gates swing open said it was fine to ride around his car and on the road side of the barrier; however, he still has those orange pyramid-type barriers between his fender and the entrance to the road side!  So the visual as you approach will not be inviting to go around his car--but he claimed that was fine.  Which of course begs the question why is the barrier there in the first place!  But more on that later--we're working

Zwift Group Rides

Submitted by mhsimkin on Fri, 11/01/2019 - 6:45am

Hi.

Now that the weather is turning colder and more unpredictable, I'm wondering if there is any interest in setting up our own Zwift group rides?

Late last year, Zwift rolled out a feature to allow users to set up thier own group rides. However, there was no way to keep the riders in your own group together.  Recently, they released an update to that feature, that enabled "rubber banding".  Rubber banding attempts to keep the riders within a reasonable distance of each other.

Would anyone doing the marathon ride on Sunday want to ride to the start together? I'm coming from the UWS and can meet on the way to the start.
