If you need a 650c tire for your trainer, I have an old Gatorskin for you. It has tread but is too old to be roadworthy IMO.

If no one claims this in one week, it goes in the trash.

(Gatorskins never flat but they are a beach to install.)

I know: the quality of my freebies has declined drastically. But my housekeeping has improved.

I have a powertap and I am confuzzled - when riding in a group, I am averaging 250-300 watts, yet when I am riding solo, I am averaging 150-200 watts.  Everythign else is more or less the same - average speed, distance, amount of climbing, perceived effort exerted.  I come home about the same amount of tired.  But when I look at the stats, I see a big discrepancy in average watts, and the only variable is solo/group.

Any pointers/tips?  (I thought it would be the opposite, if anything, since I am drafting behind people)

On the auto-generated signup sheet there is a 6th column which is cut off labeled looks like Em. I, for one, would appreciate having people's e-mail address on the signup form or otherwise available. I do not know if the cut-off column is attempting to provide this but ran out of width or its an erroneous repeat of Emergency contact.

Does anyone have a ticket they are looking to sell for the Sunday night dinner? Please call or text me at 917-536-5400

Thanks, Mark

you can probably hear it as a podcast, or re-broadcast tonight.

Come join us as we spend part of our Memorial Day holiday punishing ourselves on the hills of Staten Island.

The first half of the trip is relatively benign as we work our way down to Tottenville for some delicious paninis from Towne Deli. Then the fun begins as we hit the hills on the return trip with climbs up Lighthouse, Longview, Douglas and Howard. All in all we've plotted out a metric century of fun on the roads of SI.

Please sign up on line and then e-mail me for a cue sheet if you'd like to join us. We're planning on catching the 7:30AM ferry from the Whitehall terminal in Lower Manhattan with coffee in hand. (That means arriving by 7:15AM.)

Due to changed family logistics, we have an extra ticket that we would like to unload.  Email me if interested.   ron.torok at baml.com
