2 slots are available to ride for Bronxworks, a social service agency, with the proceeds going to children's programs at 3 Bronx shelters for homeless families:

This is the first year that the bike tour is not buying back unused charity slots (they've also significantly increased their entry fee), so we'd really like to fill them. Please email me with any questions.

The following was posted by Dave Jordan (CRCA President) to the CRCA message board.  I felt it was worth posting here for reference.  Let’s do our part to keeping Central Park a safe place to cycle.

1. Yield to Pedestrians, at all times, and give a lane's width when passing any park users traveling in the same parallel direction. 

2. Recover or endurance pace on Westside descent after W85th, that downhill in particular should ridden with extreme caution, and soon Shakespeare in the Park crowds will be gathering. 

3. No shouting or rude behavior towards any park users. 

Legal advice needed.

Hey,

I am looking to get new tires for my Specialized Dolce, right now I have stock wheels.  I did some reading, but the posibilities seem endless.

I would like to stick to a 600-800 dollar budget for the pair.  Any specific suggestions? General tips? thinks to pay attention to? I am still doing some reading but would love to get some more food for thought.

I'm selling a pair of Look Keo 2 Max pedals (grey) I bought about 6 months ago. There's some cosmetic wear, but they function perfectly.  I had to switch to Speedplays due to some knee issues.  I paid $170 for them new, I'd be happy to sell them for $90.

This is a lovely ride through Bergen and Rockland with plenty of climbing: before lunch we'll  climb Little Tor. After lunch, more climbing :after we have a chance to warm back up, it's time to head east and over the ridges. Lots of quiet streets

Hello everyone,

I've been reaching out to as many people as I can with the hope of finding my bike which was stolen from my school (Touro College of Osteopathic Medicine on 125th ST) on the 28th of March.  I'm really bummed about this.  NYPD has been "working" on it, but it doesn't seem like they are putting much effort into it.

Here's a pic of the bike, a 2010 Focus Cayo (white w/ black letters):

And pictures from the security camera of the guy walking up to the 3rd floor and then leaving with the bike:
