On the off chance that you're a member of the boards, I hope nothing came of the minor incident involving you and the police car on Clinton and Delancey. As far as I could tell, you made an honest attempt at getting out of the way of the car as it barreled through the changing light (with sirens on), and he put his car into the barricade. That he cuffed you is frankly absurd, and I'd have given you my card but you were already in the squad car.

Given that the cop in question was clearly a hothead, I wasn't going to volunteer to hand it to you when you were in the backseat of the cruiser.

anyone interested in meeting up for unofficial laps in central park as an alternative to morning rides? 6:30PM Boathouse at night. email contact me if you are interested at [email protected]

Late ride listing.  The route won't be final until we see the condition of River Road later in the week.  We'll ride four of the following six climbs:  River Road, Churchill, Speer, Walnut, Mountain Road, and The Presidents.  The "B15" means that this ride is casual speed-wise. 

From Gale Brewer's office comes this survey about the protected Columbus Avenue Bike Lane between West 77 Street and West 96 Street.

The survey is an effort to determine how the street design changes affect West Siders and is available online at https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/BrewerBikeLaneSurvey

Please help spread the word about the survey.

Hi,

I am selling a lightly used Specialized Prevail helmet (size L) and Giro Prolight SLX shoes (size 42). 

The S-Works Prevail helmet (retail $230, selling for $120) is Specialized highest-end helmet. I have for a comparo review I was doing between this and the Giro Aeon. Reviews on the web are very positive and I liked it as well. Was used for about 100 miles.

The Prolight SLX shoes are lightweight race shoes (retail $350, selling for $200 obo). Used for about 150 miles. Slight scuff under the left toe but otherwise looks new.

Photos of both can be found here:

Hi Folks

I emailed the good Wheelpeople at ENY to ask about the party timing, as my group is deciding between 65 and 100 for that day and we want to sort out a reasonable average with stops and not be too late to piggyfy later..

here is the reply hope it helps other indulgers..

Hey our weekly Thursday morning river road ride is still on this Thursday.  I spaced and forgot to repost in time for this week's newsletter.

Given the reports about conditions on RR, we will probably detour to 9W or some other adventure this week.
