Gravel Wheelset/Tubeless Tire PSI?
I have a new set of (gravel/disc) wheels and Schwalbe G One 35mm tires. The tire specs are 45-70 psi, but the wheels say max 40 psi for 35-43 mm tires.
I have them at 40 right now and they seem ok, but the numbers are freaking me out after running road clincher tires.
Any experience?
Thanks
For you Gravel Geeks
Advice on Road Bike for 10-Yr. Old?
My daughter has clearly outgrown her starter bike, and is asking for a new road bike for her birthday. I have started to look at a few LBS as well as Frog Bikes online. Does anyone have any advice on what to look for (or what to avoid)?

It looks like it’s going to rain most of the morning so I am going to move the rides to Sunday.
Please withdraw if you can’t make it.
If you are a leader please let me know if you can’t lead on Sunday.
If you are going to ride on Sunday and you are also able to lead please let me know.

Nearly getting strafed in Prospect Park by the fast pacelines .... is not fun (latest this AM, 10/11)
I apologize if this offends anyone, but I'd like to remind leaders of fast, and long, paceline rides to take into account their wide berth.
Important note: I don't know if the specific instances I'm mentioning below are NYCC rides.
Twice in the past week I was nearly strafed by the tail end of a fast group in Prospect Park. The second time was this morning, Thursday 10/11 at around 6:20AM, near the water fountain on the southeast side of the Park. I was in the slow lane, about as close as you can get to the median line separating the runners.
It's not hard to imagine why. Most peoples' focus are on the wheel in front of them. The sun hasn't fully risen. The paceline is about 20 riders long.
