River Road: First Seasonal Ride But Not Expecting This

A car flipped on its side on River Road attempting to avoid hitting a squirrel--according to the driver (I was told this unsolicited by one of the first responders). I arrived on the scene at about 5:45PM yesterday afternoon shortly after the incident occurred and I've posted a short video of the aftermath here: https://vimeo.com/215942766

Thanks

If you get a message about an NYCC sharing a document with you: DO NOT CLICK IT

It appears to be some sort of spear-phishing attack that I and a few other people have accidentally clicked on (it looks genuine).

In my case, my wife said that she got an email "from" me within minutes. I'm not sure if this is an issue for those without gmail accounts, but do not click the link if you've gotten a message that I have "shared" a document with you, and set yourself up with 2-factor authentication ASAP.

UPDATE: This is an article describing the attack: https://arstechnica.com/security/2017/05/google-docs-phish-worm-grabs-yo... Thanks to Mrunal for the link

Who has white cycling shoes?

I am in the market for a new pair of cycling shoes and am toying with the idea of getting a white pair. Obviously, fit and price are more important than color, but maybe I'm just getting a little bored with basic black. (Neon green or orange shoes are right out.) Are they hard to clean after getting caught a nasty downpour? Do nylon mesh areas come clean? Thanks.

I need a ride leader to post and manage the ride of volunteers to Pascask Park in Westwood, NJ. The crew will need to come alittle early to help with set up, help serve the food and then clean up. I would need about 6-8 in the crew. Thank you!!

I understand it takes a small army of people (and thousands of emails) to put together the SIGs and STSss in the Spring. Sometimes iffy weather and last minute things happen which can make for a complicated situation even more fluid.

I also want to say thank you for the organizers, leaders and members that make it happen. There are many pieces to juggle and sometimes there is a shortage of leaders at the lower levels.

In the future, please post a short message to this club message board in addition to sending out emails to participants. Especially if the ride is still listed (and open) on the ride board. Sometimes other veterans can step in and help.
