Bike Fitting - need suggestions

Submitted by YK on Wed, 05/16/2012 - 11:29pm

I'm looking for a place that does great bike fittings.  I've gotten fittings at the place I purchased my bike, but I never really was comfortable with the fit.  The last one I got, was particularly uncomfortable, so I'm looking to try some other place.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  I've read Signature Bikes and Performance Labs, give good fittings.  If anyone has used either would love to hear about their experience.

Co-Ride Leader for Rides Starting in Queens

Submitted by Smgolub on Wed, 05/16/2012 - 10:00pm

I'm an experienced rider looking to start leading rides (B 15/16) originating in Queens and going out to Long Island.  Would any of the experienced ride leaders be interested in co-leading a couple of rides with me so I can get my feet wet?  If so, please send email to [email protected].

Thanks,

Steve

Watch for Alpine/Nyack Cops

Submitted by DLoayza on Wed, 05/16/2012 - 3:14pm

I got a fat $85 ticket for "failure to observe signal". Specifically, the red light coming out from Alpine/River Road, on my way back from the north. Of course, the infraction is not really accurate, as I totally observed the signal. What I failed to do was observe the cop sitting there, who even told me "I was sitting RIGHT THERE".

Nevertheless,I was pretty pissed off, but then felt better when I remembered that the first cop that pulled me over in Nyack for running a stop sign (roughly an hour earlier) let me off with a verbal warning.

I only wonder if I had given an ID other than my driver's license, if I would not have received the ticket. Also wondering if points will go on my license.

I have two tickets for the blooming Metric this Sunday May 20th.  I am participating in the Gran Fondo on Sunday and because of the conflict can not use the tickets.  I got these early on, so are at the fourty eight dollar price point.  Please email if interested, [email protected]

Update, one ticket left.
