I wanted to introduce all of you pro cycling fans to a good cycling fantasy league here: https://ontherivet.net/otr-league/. To participate all you one has to do is to sign on the site. This site is run by a few individuals who update and maintain the site as a labor of love and your infromation will not be sold or given to advertisers. The admins are just knowledgeable cycling fans who like to pick the races for small prizes and bragging right.

Ride listing links in email all take me to https://nycc.org/node, not the ride listing.

Blinkies on a daytime group ride?

Submitted by isaacb on Wed, 02/19/2020 - 10:52pm

I'm concerned about distracted drivers and notice that more and more cyclists use lights in the daytime. (I use them as well, particularly when I'm solo.) Typically, on a group ride, I'll run my headlight if I'm lead, taillight if I'm sweep, but otherwise they're off. This past weekend, with another club, all six of us had lights running. Depending on angle, they can be annoying to be behind. Does running lights in a daytime group enhance visibility to drivers, or is the presence of the group itself sufficiently visible? As a leader, should we encourage groups to keep their lights on? Thanks.

Ride Listing Question

Submitted by CWaaser on Sat, 02/15/2020 - 8:46pm

Why can I no longer filter rides by "Type"? When I click on either "Cue Sheet" or "Training" no rides are listed. I can still filter by Level and by Day, but not by Type.

Fender Recommendations?

Submitted by neil_e_whitfiel... on Fri, 02/14/2020 - 8:14am

Hi all, sorry this has probably been well covered, but it is driving me crazy.

I just signed up for the SIG (which is excitingsmiley) and I need to get some fenders for a specialized roubaix 2018 with disk brakes - carbon frame with 28 tyres.

I've tried doing the usual research but more or less everything has 50/50 good and bad saying they rub or rattle, are incompatible with disks or are hard to fit. I've gone down the rabbit hole a bit.

Any advice??

Thanks in advance.

My Apology to the Women’s Racing Team

I want to apologize publicly, and through as many channels as I can, for some remarks I made Tuesday evening at the Club meeting.
