Just started to watch Hambini's VLOG's.  Here is a great one on ceramic bearings vs. metal bearings.

At the January Club Meeting, NYCC Board Members we asked to share their winter cycling tips.  Here's mine with links.  In addition, a recommendation on tires.  For the record, I ride down to the low 20s.

Winter ride planning strategies include:

Non members are welcome to attend the meeting. If you are not a member please consider joining NYCC for just $1 for the first month by clicking here. 

Sorry  - the rain, gale force winds, and falling temps are too much. 

Maybe we'll have better weather for next week's Galaxy ride.  Hope to see you then.

Anyone have word on when registration will reopen... other than what’s posted- “Early 2019” ?

It was just announced Sec. of Education Betsy DeVos broke her hip socket and pelvis in a bike accident a couple weeks ago. (Her injury hadn't been thought that severe. She is in a wheelchair). At least then Sec. of State John Kerry only broke his femur in his bike crash near Geneva in 2015. 

I disagree with her

Does anyone know if Stephen Roche is still operating their bike camp in Mallorca?
The website has not been updated from 2018 and emails have been only occasionally responded to
with promises that the site will be updated soon...

Are there other bike camps that people have enjoyed in Mallorca?  Girona?  Canary Islands?

thanks!

With cars no longer driving into Central Park, the street entrances at both 6th Avenue/CPS and West 72nd Street/CPW have been reconfigured to force cars to turn right or left leaving no STRAIGHT lane going into the park. I end up threading the line -- and it is just a line -- in the middle of the lanes. Coupled with the heavy pedestrian traffic once you get through the intersection to the park, it feels very unsafe to me, and yet I keep having to do it.

We already lost the 8th Avenue entrance entirely years ago after it was closed to cars, and now we have no safe uptown entrance at 6th Avenue either. How are people managing these intersections? Should we reach out to DOT to request improvements?
