I'm planning to start a ride this weekend on Saturday July 1st in CP at the boathouse parking lot.  Does anyone know of any known runs or rides that will cause any closure in the park bike route? I checked the CP website and did a search on CP and this date, but nothing seems like a problem (didgeridoo festival, anyone?).  What are other sites or methods I may be missing?

Hi! Does anyone know of non-profit organizations in the NYC area that would need (and appreciate) a bike donation? I'm getting rid of my 2012 hybrid, and rather than sell it for a couple of bucks, I'd like to donate it to an organization that would make a good use of it. Any suggestions?

NYYC member and bike fit expert, Happy Freedman, works with Ben Serotta on Custom bike build.   Happy is a bike fit expert working out of the Hospital for Special Surgery and was genraus enough to host 2 bike fit demonstrations for the NYCC B SIG this year.  His approch and methods are little diferent then other bike fitters and worth looking at.  Below is the link to the article by Ben Serotta.

From this year's America's Cup race -

"...the Kiwis...revealed a secret: four stationary-bike grinding stations on each side of the 15-meter catamaran instead of the usual arm-powered pedestals. The idea? Pedal power creates the energy to work the control systems and maneuver the wing sail. ...Leg muscles can obviously provide more power than arms."
