Hello all,

There have been a few questions regarding confirmation of SIG/STS registration. In addition to the confirmation email you should have recieved, you can confirm that you are in fact registered for a SIG/STS by visiting the respective event's registration page. If you see the "Cancel Signup" link (as highlighted in the image below) you can rest assured that you are a confirmed registrant.

If you see an option to "Sign Up" as highlighted in the image below then you are not registered. 

Temperature low; no one has signed up. I'll re-list the ride a little later in the spring, when the weather is a little more propitious.

All,

It’s safe to say we’re all THRILLED that the SIG/STS registration being just around the corner, as it signifies that we’re one step closer to the start of the (non-FOBO) riding season.

Many of your questions about the events themselves will be answered at the club meeting All About 2014 SIG/STS. In advance of the meeting, we wanted take the opportunity to describe the registration process. Please take a moment to read through the process described below. If you have any questions or issues, please reply to this thread and we’ll do our best to respond in a timely manner.

Not the best written article, nor the best application of one finding within evolutionary psychology (a personal love of mine). 

If i were to contribute to the article, i would add a perspective of a cyclist following the rules %100 of the time to disprove the authors hypothesis. 

Cyclist and cars are one and the same, cars do not share roads, therefore cyclist do not.  cyclist wait in line at lights (instead of riding along side cars). we stop at every red light (and do not try to speed through a yellow).  we signal properly etc. 

Think motorist would not be just as angry at cyclist, if not more so?

Of course not.

That means all of you bike commuters from New Jersey will have to go into work tomorrow, hope you enjoyed your day off! You always take the day off when the path is closed, right? Ha ha ha ha ha ha.

(But really, the PA can't ensure pedestrian and bicycle access across the bridge during expected seasonal weather conditions? There are surely conditions extreme enough to make pedestrian access forbidding, but NYC streets and sidewalks were totally fine at 12pm Saturday because they were well-shoveled and salted. Waiting 2 days to give the all-clear sounds like they just wanted to let the problem take care of itself... infuriatingly lazy when you consider all that they do to tend to the vehicle lanes)

I would like to know what are the important steel frame qualities, from riders who are experienced.

Safe Riding for Bicycle Messengers - Breakaway Couriers

"Bicycle safety is Breakaway’s number one concern; our goal is to have no accidents at all.  It’s true that being a messenger can be a dangerous job, but if you’re careful, know what you’re doing and follow some simple rules you should be able to avoid most, if not all, accidents. 

Statistically speaking, most accidents happen to messengers who have been working less than 8 weeks.  It doesn’t matter how much time you’ve spent on your bike; the only way to prepare for being a messenger in Manhattan is to be a messenger in Manhattan.  If you have no experience with this kind of riding, it’s all the more important to be extremely cautious."
