Escape from NY - A ride with team Siggis / NYVelocity

Submitted by TOrford on Fri, 09/09/2011 - 11:28am

 

For anyone interested in learning more about racing or just wanting to ride an A/20 pace for ENY, join up with the riders from the Siggis / NYVC team who will be out for the ride.  We’ll be meeting up around 6:45 in Sakura Park, keep an eye out for our blue and white kit (I’ll be riding a white Giant).  We’ll leave around 7 once the group is assembled.  If you’d like to learn more about the team (even just what our kit looks like so you can find us on the 24th), check out http://www.siggisracing.com/.  This will not be a hammer ride, just a group ride at an A pace.  We’ll stop for all mechanicals, etc.

Although there is a small chance of rain tomorrow, our ride is ON.  Consider bringing a shell in case of rain.  

The route is 72 miles from Grant's Tomb to Tarrytown.  Those who'd like to ride back to the city it's another 20 miles or so.

Below is a link to the GPS profile.  This is a route with plenty of rollers so we will take it easy.

Help? Overridden Garmin map.

Submitted by PatCH on Thu, 09/08/2011 - 7:10pm

So, stupid me, I downloaded a map for France on my trusty old Garmin Edge 705 SD card, and accidentally wiped out my US maps. I called up the folks at Garmin, and they said my only recourse is to buy the US maps (again). Does anyone know how I might be able to recover my US maps, or do I have to shell out the dough?

Plainclothes police on the GWB

Submitted by RFernandez on Wed, 09/07/2011 - 11:29pm
Last Friday morning (7:00am) our group was stopped by two plainclothes police mid bridge on our return from a river road ride. They said they were there in response to compliants of aggressive cycling. I have certainly seen impatient riding on the bridge and have to agree it's dangerous. It' not the place for it. Pass it on and close it down!
