We had a crash on our Cheetah B-SIG reunion ride today. One of our number, Yanjuin (Y.J.) Chen went down at the top of E. Clinton. I did not see the crash because I was showing off getting to the bottom really fast, just behind another rider. When no one else appeared in a couple minutes we called and found out about the crash. I was told she hit a rock.

When we got back to the top, the Tenafly PD was already directing traffic away from the situs of the crash and helping our injured colleague, who appeared mainly to have  lots of road rash; but she did hit her head and was a little woozy for a few minutes so we all thought it was wise to have her checked at Englewood Hospital.  Officer Pat BauMuller couldn't have been nicer or more helpful.

portions of south mountain road and camp hill are being chip sealed. Their is loose crushed stone laid out. suggest avoiding these two for now. i went around the bad portions of both using 202/little tor(33) and ladentown road

I'm scheduled to marshal but I would like to race instead! Please let me know if you would like to marshal on my behalf - I would be happy to compensate you for your time. You also get the benefit of watching and supporting the NYCC racing team!

UPDATE: A Good home was found. Sorry to anyone that didn't get in first.

Hi all,

Unfortunately due to an injury that will see me miss this years GFNJ in Morristown, I have a ticket that is available to be transferred. I will not charge for the ticket, as I'd just prefer to see someone else be able to have some fun from the event. There is however a transfer fee chargeable to GFNJ of $40 up until 26th August or $50 afterwards, you can select any of the route distances, so not limited to the original one.

We are setting up several committees to solve the world’s problems.  Well, maybe not all of them. . . .

We’ll be reviewing the Ride Leadership Guidelines with an eye toward refreshing and updating.  Also, we’re going to take a look at some basic fundamental Rider Participant Guidelines.  Having ride participants and ride leaders on the same page – having a good idea what to expect – should be helpful, right?

I promise one thing; these guidelines won’t be perfect.  I’ve been around long enough to know we never get anything perfect.  But a wise philosopher once said, “Perfection is the enemy of very good”.  I predict with confidence the guidelines will be very very good.

i'm interested in rides over 75 miles and 7000 feet of elevation apx that cuts through a park or reserve area. done my two such rides to death.

The Crusher ride was apparently too much for one cyclist.  When we reached Nyack she called Uber to order a car.  Within a few minutes it arrived and she and her bike got in and were on their way back to the city.

I haven't been so shocked in my life for awhile now. I signed up to the ride well in advance and yesterday afternoon after my CRCA race I was informed that I have been removed from the ride due to rider conflicts. I can't believe it. I had planned my whole weekend around doing this ride along with saving a specific training freshness to not get dropped. This is the ride in question: https://nycc.org/node/84390. This has been significantly disruptive to me and am now posting here because I been unable to sleep the past night due to the anguish this situation has caused me. 

I've searched the archives, and I don't think this question has been asked and answered.  I'm interested in a bike fitting, but most shops have multiple levels of fitting, and it's not clear to me which level I need.  It seems like there are usually 3 levels: (1) a basic sizing (which I know is not what I'm looking for); (2) a 1-hour or so session addressing saddle, pedal, and handlebar position; and (3) a name-brand (BG, Guru, Retul), 3-4 hour fitting with interview and computer imaging.  For example, http://ridebrooklynny.com/about/bike-fittings-pg135.htm
