Today several of us joined hundreds of other cyclists for the memorial ride for Jose Alzorriz, who was the 19th cyclist killed this year in our fair city. It was a somber occasion as we made our way down Coney Island Avenue from Prospect Park to Avenue L, where the tragedy occurred, especially as none of us is under any illusion that Jose’s will be the last death this year. Whether the answer is more and better bike lanes, tougher laws, better driver education or all of the above, something must be done.

Distracted Nassau County Legislators Saving Drivers from Reckless Cyclists with new laws

Hi, All:

Looking to get some advice on where to find good cycling kit (jersey, bibs, etc.). I'm a little (ahem) rounder in the mid-section than I'd like to be, so I often have two problems: 1) I order a jersey that's too big and the pockets sag really low, or 2) I get a jersey that is too small and restrictive (but the pockets are fine).

Does anyone else have this problem? If so, do you have a good brand you could recommend? 

Thanks,

Matt
