Perspective

Submitted by GeorgeArcarola on Sat, 10/31/2015 - 8:04pm

A big thank you to the fourteen huckleberries that were foolish enough to humor me and come on a ride with me this morning. Riding in a group is something to be treasured... it helps to put other nonsense into perspective. 

At the end of the ride, one of the participants asked, "you doing this again?"... I originally said no, but if I don't start working on my kitchen remodel this Saturday, I'll post something... stay tuned. 

Again, thank you!

George

I interrupt this election for an important cuesheet-related announcement

Submitted by Mucow on Sat, 10/31/2015 - 4:21pm

After a year of mild success living under my personal domain, I'm pleased to announce everyone's favorite cuesheet generator now has a domain of its very own!

(At least until I forget to renew it in mid-2020)

Helpfully, there's a link to the ballot on this page if you have yet to vote. (If you did vote, the link will serve you a mostly blank page confirming your have-already-voted status)

Anyone else getting strange emails(on many levels) from club member Jay J.?

Jay, you're not really stuck in Mexico, are you?

Losing my touch

Submitted by GeorgeArcarola on Thu, 10/29/2015 - 8:21pm

Time was that when I posted a ride, it sold out... here we are two days away from a quick, short spin to Nyack, and there's no waiting list.

Talk about being humbled...

Are there as yet no candidates for this  position?

From this week's Recreation Roundtable meeting:

DOT has begun work on switching 26 signals on Drive south of 72nd St

- Signals will have pedestrian activated push-buttons

- Signals will be on timer during open vehicle hours and then will

switch to green at all times until ped crossing button is activated.

- New pedestrian crossing signals will also be installed

- Project will go through winter into spring.

It seems to me that push-button lights will likely mean that the lights will be red 90% of the time for cycling traffic on the Loop during high use times (e.g., daytime on weekends in the summer).

Need Info on Painting a Helmet

Submitted by Cyclegalnycc on Wed, 10/28/2015 - 8:21pm

No jokes, please...someone asked me if there was a paint she could use to paint her helmet without degrading the plastic or the foam.  Okay, artistic types, any thoughts?  I mean other than judgments yea or nay, please.
