Thinking of riding River Road this weekend. Anyone know what conditions are like?

hmm...

I'm slowly shopping for a multi-surface bike that I can take camping. I've narrowed down the Specialized Diverge as being a fairly good balance of weight, utility, and function for the cost. I know a bunch of people in the club have them - recall aside, and regrets about your purchase? Or recommendations?

I have also test ridden some of the steel bikes (Kona, Niner), and am curious about the Warbird (unavailable, posssibly also out on recall) - but the Diverge is substancially cheaper, so I'm trying to talk myself into it.

Or out of it. :)

I need to have a bike set up.  My doctor recommended Champion Bicycle Shop on Amsterdam Ave. Have you had your bike serviced at Champion Bicycle?  If so, how do you rate them?

Has anyone done this ride from Cairo to Capetown? The company that does this is TDA Global Cycling. I’d love to talk equipment with you as I’m planning on doing this next year and have lots of questions.

Thanks.

We don't want to take any chances with the precip this morning.

These village curbside bike lanes have a very large buffer - if they made the buffer smaller to enable parking like the 26th & 29th st bike lanes there probably wouldn’t be as much opposition. It would also make the lanes “protected”.

I wanted to take this opportunity to thank all those who attended this month's Club Meeting.  As I mentioned, it is not only your passion for cycling that makes this club what it is - but also your love for sharing that passion with others that enables this community called the NYCC, to exist.  So thank you.  I hope you found the Board's presentation helpful and you now have a better understanding of their responibilities and goals for 2019.
