Hey all -- I'm just getting back to regular riding after a 7-year hiatus (coincidentally, my twins just turned 7...) Looking for someone who is interested in meeting up once a week do some laps around prospect park, normally at 630 or 7am on a weekday morning (Tuesday or a Wednesday).   I'm slow (14-17 mph average); this will be a mixture of a social and training ride but most of all we will cause each other to actually do this once a week!   Email me at [email protected] if you're interested.  If I can actually be disciplined about this, I'll eventually turn it into a group ride....

For anyone who wants to avoid the frustration of planning to do laps and finding that the park is chock full of people doing a running race, here are the dates of the NYRR running races in Central and Prospect Park this summer.

Saturday, May 20: From approximately 6-9am, Prospect Park will be very full of runners. From about 7-11am, Ocean Parkway will be full of runners.

Saturday, June 10: From approximately 7-10am, Central Park will be very full of runners.

Saturday and Sunday June 24/25: From approximately 7-10am, Central Park will be very full of runners.

Saturday, July 15: From approximately 7-10am, Central Park will be very full of runners.

Recently, prior to shipping it here to NYC, I had our Trek Madones upgraded from all-mechanical Shimano 10-speed components to Campy 12-speed.

The LA shop that did the conversion left something to be desired and while I am knowledgable with Shimano systems enough to know my limitations, I'm totally unfamilar with Campy.

Can anyone recommend a "Pro" shop with a truly good mechanic familiar with high-end mechanical systems?  Do these mechanics even exist any longer? 

I want to get a total tune-up and need someone who's worked with such gear and isn't just relying on YouTube videos!

Great news:  at the bottom of the Alpine hill, at the Alpine Marina, there is a new cafe with coffees, croissants, sandwiches, energy bars, gatorades, etc.  it is run by a really nice guy, Alex, who hopes to become part of our cycling world.  Nice pit stop if you don't feel like going all the way to the 9W Market.  Good clean bathrooms and water too!

Hello everyone,

New to the club, joined C-Sig this spring, and attending the Berkshires weekend for the first time.

Booked a room with 2 queen beds at Quality Inn in Great Barrington. The total cost is $552q, wondering if any female is looking to share the room for the duration/part of the trip. If so, please email me at [email protected]. Thanks! 

Best,

Jo
