Join us! For the 7th year in a row the Lucarelli/Nyvelocity team will be leading an "A" ride for Escape New York. All strong NYCC riders are welcome; not just those that are interested in racing next year. We will meet at around 6:45 AM at Sakura park and congregate right outside on the fence just south of the entrance, at 7:15 we ride. The pace will be steady and we will try to keep everyone together. It may get a bit more selective on the longer climbs, but we always regroup at the top. We’ll stop for all mechanicals, etc.

Excuse the plug for another club, but such an inventive concept I had to share.

Bike Blockers
Submitted by cdc on Tue, 09/15/2015 - 5:38pm
Hi Everyone!
WNYC (who I work for--though I'm not on this project) is putting together a crowd-sourced map of bike lane obstuctions in the city. The goal is to document and track where and how problems occur, so we can bring awareness and hopefully improve conditions for bikers throughout the city. I figure some NYCCers might be interested.
If you see something blocking a bike lane, could you please snap a picture and send it [email protected]?
Make sure the location feature on your phone or camera is on. And to be doubly-safe, include in the email where you took the photo.

Hi all -- I saw a few threads on this topic, which are a few years old. So interested in people's recent recommendations on any podiatrists/orthopedists that people like and have a real understanding of cycling-related issues. Thanks.

Bike Shop, the Musical
Submitted by jack Lehnert on Tue, 09/15/2015 - 12:20pm
Just a head's up for a one woman off off Broadway, hour and fifteen minute totally bike oriented musical. I have not heard of the actor, but she was very talented and previously worked in a bike store and was a bike mesenger. The show is "Bike Shop, The Musical." It has a short run on 1st Ave. and 10th street. If you ride your bike to the show you can place it on the stage. It felt great to be so welcomed to a show!
