Today I noticed several bikers on the side of the road with police on both my ride out and ride in to the city. Not sure if this represents a crackdown, but riders should exercise caution as always.

A friend sent me this. I haven't actually read it in it's entirety so I am not offering a supporting opinion of it. I just figured I'd post it for others to peruse.

Hi. I'm posting this for one of the Rapha gals. (Sorry, I don't know how to post the pics.)

UPDATED

I just got an email from NYCares and they are 80,000 coats short of their 100,000 coat goal. The collection ends Dec. 31.

Do you have a coat to give? If so, email me and I will come pick it up. I can also give you a donation receipt.

If it's easier, you can also drop off a coat at any police precinct from Nov. 17 to Dec. 31, or one of 300 drop-off sites to be announced.

Coats should be washed or dry cleaned before donating.

Had to get some stuff sorted with my schedule, but now I'm all set. Dropped it down to a B16 pace to welcome more riders along, and it's a ride where you can get back to the city by 2pm if you need to get somewhere else in the evening (as I do)
