According to the Journal News(8/13), a Manhattan man, Darren Nacht (apparently not a NYCC member) was observed by police letting air out of a parked car in the driveway of a Piermont home after a dispute with a motorist. He is due in village court on Sept. 14.

I am directionally challenged so I could use some help or advice.  I was looking for a route from the GWB to Mountain Lakes, NJ.  I am trying to find a route so I won't get lost or end up on a road that is not suitable for biking.  In looking at Google Maps (for bikes) there are three separate routes listed.  They arre generally the same with some variations.  Does anyone know how to interpret this.  Is the first listed route the "safest"?  How do I know which one of the choices would be best?  I have come across this on several occasions where Google gives more than one choice, but have not been able to figure out which one is the most appropriate.  Thanks for any suggestions.  MIGb

Hi !

This is on a very short notice but who knows ... I need to find 3 riders to put together a group for a supported ride from the 22nd to the 28th (dates and length are somewhat flexible) in Colorado (or in the great parks). Ideally: Equivalent level of B17 - A23 and ~ 60-100 miles a day. Budget (excl. airfare) seems to be from $1700 (camp) to $2800 (inns). I've looked several tour operators; Escape Adventures and Trek Travel seem to be pretty well rated. Alternatively, happy to get your advice if you know any  other good tour operators or providers of self-guided tour services (i.e. would just need a shuttle to transfer my luggage from pint to point).

Let me know if ready to jump in on the last minute !

Thanks !

Hi all, 

I heard there are quite good iphone apps for biking which functions as a GPS. So all you need to do is just to mount your iPhone to handlebar. Has anyone here tried that?

Thanks in advance,

Susan

If you are  up for meeting around 7-7:30 at Engineers gate on Saturday for a AB/18 pace ride to Piermont or Nyack, let me know and I will be there. Would love the company!

I have done the best I could cleaning off my 1985? Bianchi. Gone are an inch of dirt and grease. I tried to put on year 2000 pedals, but it seems that the crank threads are different.  I was able to install my old Time Sport pedals. And I have the original Time shoes with the cleats attached.  It is a good thing I save all my old bike parts.  However, I tried clipping in and I can't do it.  Help! How does one clip into old (mid 1980s) Time pedals?  I have no problem with Look or Speedplay. What's different?  Do I need to adjust the pedal?

Thanks!!!!

Due to low interest, we've decided to cancel our A21 ride out to Cold Spring for Saturday. Enjoy your weekend.

I'm planning to preview the course for an upcoming race i'm doing that begins/ends in Croton-on-Hudson.  I would like to ride back into the city from there, but couldn't find a ride in the library with that specific route.  I was able to find one that goes north from NYC to Tarrytown.  My questions are:

1) Is Route 9 heading south from Croton-on-Hudson to Tarrytown rideable the whole way?  If not, does anyone have an alternative?

Hi all,

I'm getting off work early today 8/12 and looking to do a few laps in CP around 5/6pm...anyone want to join?
