Several Miles of road being repaved. The road's being broken up.  Rideable if you don't mind the broken stones everywhere.

Looking for a Bike Store With a Good Mechanic and Good Attitude

Submitted by RWechsler on Fri, 08/31/2012 - 1:10pm

After many years (decades, in fact) of being a loyal Toga customer, I am looking for a change.

Here's why: They don't seem at all interested in helping me fix my bike. They have separated the selling floor from the mechanics' area to such a degree that one is no longer able to even speak to the mechanics who work on the bikes.

Cycling in South America - Recommendations

Submitted by shade tree on Fri, 08/31/2012 - 12:36pm

A friend is trying to find information on bicycle tours in South America, especially Argentina and/or Chile that aren't really expensive (Backroads would be too expensive).  Does anyone have any experience cycling in that part of the world, and if so, does anyone could make any recommendations.

Golden Apple - Sunday Sept. 2nd - Who's Riding

Submitted by MLevin on Fri, 08/31/2012 - 10:48am

All,

I am registered to ride the Golden Apple Century on Sunday Sept. 2nd and wanted to see if there were any other club members riding and if anyone wants to meet up and combine forces, start together and determine whether we want to stay together as we ride.

I am expecting to average around 16 mph over the whole ride, which means probably a comfortable 18-20 pace on the flats.  I am an A level rider, but due to family obligations rarely do any of the club rides anymore.

If anyone is interested, drop me a line either through the board or offline at mark.levin(at)gmail(dot)com.

Thanks,

Mark
