Member with a car for Saturday? (I have a trunk rack for 3 bicycles)
Use my contact form or reply here to give me a heads up... Was thinking of some options for a small-group fall ride... Anything up to 18mph is fine...
Saddle Testing
I know this was covered a few years ago, but as times change - does anyone know of any shops that have a saddle test program? Stopped at Toga and they don't, and neither does Rennaisance on Columbus. Don't want to drop $100+, use the saddle to test it for a few days, and not be able to return. Thanks!
I interrupt our exciting NYCC election posts for this about cyclists, stop signs, and San Francisco.
We now return to our regularly scheduled intra-club whatever.
Campaign message number 2 - Advocacy
As I mentioned last week, I would be posting a statement each week until the election culminates on 11/10 expressing my views on topics of interest to our members. I felt it would be helpful for you to know your candidates' thinking. So. . . .you all know I invented the SIG, right? I already told you that, right? Maybe I should to tell you again . . . .calm down, only kidding, ha, ha, ha. This evening I'd like to share some thoughts with you about advocacy.
Marathon-Related Closures on the Central Park Loop
I have been asked to post this information to loop users:
Friday, Oct. 16th:
- Installation of bleachers that line the West Drive south of W. 67th Street commenced and load-in of equipment and structures will continue through the next two weeks leading up to the Marathon.
Monday 10/19:
Roboviva outage, early morning 10/21
Hi everyone,
This upcoming Wednesday at 1am (EDT), the virtual server hosting everyone's favorite cuesheet generator will be taken offline so the hosting provider can perform some security updates. During this time all Roboviva services, including any hosted PDFs, will be unavailable. The server will be back online by 3:00 am, and Roboviva should be available a minute or two afterwards. HOWEVER, in the event there's an issue related to the update, I won't be awake to check it until 7am—so if you're planning any late-night midweek route planning benders, please plan accordingly.
- Mike
