Riding partner for B-16 Fall Foliage #2 - Minanus

Submitted by mhsimkin on Mon, 10/02/2023 - 4:33pm

Hi.

I am planning to participate on the B-16 Fall Foliage #2 - Mianus this coming Saturday.

However, given the amount of vertical, I will be off the back pretty quick.

I'm looking for other riders that are interested in doing this ride, but a slower pace, around 13 - 14.

There is a waitlist for the ride, however, if you are interested, please sign up and let me know.

I will work with Neile to make sure you are approved as a rider.

Thanks

FedEx shipping

Submitted by EODonnell on Sun, 09/24/2023 - 5:30pm

I ordered some clothing from Canyon.  They shipped by FedEx.  The package never came to my door.  FedEx shared a photo of  the package dropped in my building in the lobby by mailboxes.  I live on the 4th floor.  The package was stolen.  Does FedEx have an obligation to literally deliver it to me...at my door, as opposed to dropping it in the lobby?

Mavic AllRoad Disc - Parts Required

Submitted by GlennT on Sun, 09/24/2023 - 5:11pm

I was wondering if anyone has been able to source Mavic wheel replacement parts. I discovered that the ratchets on my AllRoad Disc rear wheel were rusted together. Strange thing is, the bike was used two weeks ago and then stored inside. Perhaps water got into the freehub

I am specifically looking for part # V2251701 KIT ID360 2 Ratchets + Spring + Grease

This is a rebuild kit.

I tried the Mavic website but since they went out of business (or emerged from going out of business) there is no customer service contact details. There are sites in the UK that reference the part but it seems they are all sold out

If anyone has had experience with Mavic wheels and parts, please reply

Thanks
