Shops in London ?

Submitted by Sir Roger on Fri, 07/08/2011 - 9:46pm

I am called to London next week on family business but may have half a day to do some shopping. Does anyone know of a bike shop that might sell retro / vintage or otherwise English Jerseys

Thanks

FS: New resistance band set

Submitted by CWood on Fri, 07/08/2011 - 6:27pm

Need some shoulder work? Me too. That's why I ordered this nice set of resistance bands on Amazon, 2-30 pounds resistance.

Too bad I didn't think about where I'd be able to attach them in my small apartment. Like, nowhere. (Unless I drill a hook into a custom bookcase. Don't think so.) So I'm sticking with low-tech Therabands.

Before I ship these back, if you're in the market, you can have them for what I paid, $28. If interested, please email me within one week.

They can be attached to a door, if you are fortunate enough to have one of those in your dwelling unit.

 

 

I allowed slots for 8 riders, since that corresponds to Metro-North per-train limits. (Fudging it a little -- it's really 9 including me.) If you aren't signed up but want to ride, though, you may be able to try your luck tomorrow anyway, SO LONG AS you are willing to possibly cut your version of the ride slightly short so as to catch an earlier train. (You'd skip the planned diversion to Long Pond and proceed directly from the intersection of the Trailway and Croton Falls Road to either Brewster or Croton Falls Metro North.)

Also, it's possible that a preregistered rider may not show, in which case you wouldn't have to use this plan. Be forewarned, though!

Thanks!

Ride Difficulty Scale

Submitted by DHauss on Fri, 07/08/2011 - 4:13pm

The club uses a scale of 1 to 5 to rate rides.  Is 5 the most difficult?  And how difficult would an A19 Level 4 ride be?

Thanks
