" Cavendish smoothly pedaled his orange shoes but his pace was stately, sometimes below six miles per hour."

In short: light, relatively cheap, a little stripped down in functionality, but looks good for following the kind of rides we have in our ride library. Supposedly 15 hour battery life, a thing that matters a little more than you'd think (if the battery life is 8-10 hours and it comes up a little short on that, you'll find it drained before the end of some of our longer rides)

Not meant to be commercial, just helpful - nobody NEEDS one of these, but it is probably one of the more useful additions one can buy for doing frequent long rides.

I wear a L or XL in Primal (I don’t like a tight jersey). Does anyone know what would be the corresponding size with the 2018 ENY jersey?

Does anyone know what channel on Cablevision?

I could not find it I the schedule. Thanks

I was thinkingn of doing an art tour from Storm King to DIA Beacon and home from Cold Spring-ish.

Can anyone tell me if 9D from Beacon to CS is ok? It looks like no shoulder , but I've only ever gone to Cold Spring from Bear.

Thanks!

Readers may recall last week a passenger in a car on the GWB yelled at me, "Nice pink bike!"

So there I am today, motoring down Riverside, around 140th St. and some cretin on the sidewalk, possibly headed back into the woods where he lives, yells out, "Get your pink ass outta here, boy!" His remark defines "gratuitous": obviously, as I rolled by him, I was in the process of getting my white ass outta there. What most upsets me about this is his vote counts as much as mine does. Nah, on second thought, to a certainty, Mr. Gay Basher, although in his mid-30s, likely has yet to cast a vote and likely never will.

Anyone going to RAGBRAI?  My wife Nancy and I are going .... let us know if u will be there ...

I put in a search for Lake CX301 wide cycling shoes. There was just one review on Amazon.   Here it is in its totality https://www.amazon.com/Lake-CX301-Cycling-Shoe-Wide/dp/B06XHNM63H#customerReviews

So far, these fit my feet very well. I've struggled to find cycling shoes to fit my wide feet, and these seem to be very comfortable. I've yet to actually take a ride with these, but so far, so good.
