I highly recommend this tour company: great tour, great people, fantastic scenery

The forecast is 34 degrees feeling like 29 and only one brave soul is still signed up so I am cancelling tomorrow morning's ride. The park is still open so don't stay home on my account.

Has anyone heard of Treads bike shop on Dyckman. Are they any good at fitting a bike. Thanks

Tremendous Opportunity for B Riders

For the past 4 years, Victor Baruh & I have Co-Captained the B STS. Together with our team of dedicated Ride Leaders and approximately 150 participants, it has been a memorable experience. The cycling was challenging, the routes were beautiful, the friendships made . . . . priceless.

We have decided to step aside and “pass the baton” to a new team of Captains and Ride Leaders so they can enjoy a similar experience. We promise that it will be just as rewarding for those who succeed us. We hope that any and all experienced and motivated B level riders will consider this as a unique opportunity.

I'm looking to burn through a LOT of flex money (what an awesome problem to have!), and have decided it is time for a badass pair of prescription wraparounds. Oakleys, right?! Wrong - Oakleys don't fit my head. I'm already crushed, no need to tell me how much this sucks. ;)

So, I want to find some place in the city that has a decent selection of cycling sunglasses. So far, the only places I've been have one or two Oakleys, but nothing else. I know other manufacturers make them - I've researched online - but given the weird head fit issue, I need to try them in person. Any suggestions?

Here is the link to the flyer for the event:                                                                                                                              &n

I've always wondered what would happen if a pro rode an ordinary bike.

On July 17, a reporter for the English newspaper "The Guardian" raced a Pro,  who rides various utility bikes.

Fun.

Here’s the article from the senior editor of the Weekly Standard taht prompted this post. 
“Drivers Get Rolled: Bicyclists are making unreasonable claims to the road—and winning”

We had a terrific ride today; about 20 people were on the ride, the weather was beautiful and River Road/Hudson River Dr. was pristine.

We did shorten the ride to Piermont because we had so much fun with 6 flats over about 30 miles of the 50 mile ride. 5 of us had a chance to demonstrate our tube replacement skills (our winner had two flats). We never did get to find out whether the Clausland Mountain fire would affect our route.

 I don't know if this is a record, but it certainly deserves recognition. Thus the new name with apologies to Six Flags Great Adventure.
