Has anyone purchased a bike with a 1x11 drivetrain?  Do you feel like the jump from one gear to the next is too great?  Do you feel like you would like more gears?

I'm trying to contact the folks who run this group but have not had any success.   If anyone knows the persons involved, could you share my interest with them.  Thanks

Cancelled for Saturday, and not postponed to Sunday. Most of the weather sites are predicting at least some rain along our route, and there are no practical bailouts over there in Jersey.

The one site not predicting rain tomorrow is Dark Sky. What's up with that? Someone please explain how they can disagree so much.

Hi. I'm looking for a co-leader for a C-12 ride on Sunday, August 26th.  We will be using Carol Waaser's route to Blauvelt for Pizza and Louie's for Ice Cream.

If you can help, please drop me an email.

Thanks

I just found an Garmin ConnectIQ App called routeCourse. It will facilitate the download of pinned RWGPS routes to the directly to the Edge.  From there you can use them for navigation.

This is just an FYI.  There is spraying going on in the park from sun up until 8am.  The stretch of HHD/RR between Main Street/River Road in Ft Lee/Edgewater until Englewood is closed.

Be aware that they are spraying Roundup Pro.  Which is the case that Monsanto just lost in California last week.

Is anyone familiar with the roads in East Bronx, near Pelham Bay Park?

I want to scout a connection to the bike path from the new Soundview ferry stop at Clason Point.

If you've signed up to be a marshal for Escape New York, this will be the first in a series of rides to familiarize you with the 50 mile route and the "bump" system that we use to station marshals at designated stops along the way. This is a new route so riding the route will be required either with me or Co-Captain, Alan West. This also goes for riding the 25 mile route.  

If you were planning on being a marshal on the 25 mile route and can do the entire 50 mile route on Saturday, you will be able to ride past all the standing marshal spots on the 25 route and you'll get credit for riding the 25 mile route as well. We will also do a separate 25 mile scouting ride later on if necessary.

Check the ride listings for this Saturday's ride.

It would be greatly appreciated if anyone who lives or works near the following could report on the repaving status:

Rugby Road/East 14th Street between Avenues H and M

Avenue N between East 14th Street and Bedford Ave

Any information would be greatly appreciated.  We need to know today, Thursday, 8/16.

Thank you!!
