Sunday B-15 Northvale Ride CANCELLED

Submitted by CWaaser on Sat, 02/11/2017 - 5:20pm

All the weather forecasts we've looked at continue to say 90-100% chance of rain tomorrow, so we've decided to cancel now, so everyone can make new plans for tomorrow.  Even if, by some slight chance, it doesn't rain in the morning, we're concerned about roads being narrow, with shoulders still icy.  So have a good day.

Roads too sloppy, and even dangerous.

Will re-list for next Saturday, Feb 18.

Replacement Wheels For Specialized 12X135 Disc SCS Through Axle

Submitted by GlennT on Thu, 02/09/2017 - 1:30pm

Has anyone had any experience that they can share with either buying or building replacement wheels for a Specialized bike that uses a 12X135 SCS through axle. I have a 2016 Roubaix SL4 expert Disc and I wanted to upgrade the wheels. I went to a number of manufacturers website and its seems that none (other than Specialized Roval) makes this size of wheel. Specialized adopted the 12X135 size on 2015 and 16 models but never explained the limitation to retailers nor consumers like me.

Saturday - Snowshoeing/Hiking

Submitted by nymultisport on Thu, 02/09/2017 - 10:35am
With snow/ice/wet streets on Saturday, the Snow Devils are venturing out again. About 10 of us are snowshoeing/hiking in Harriman State Park.
 
We expect to cover 4-5 miles--trail conditions dependent--over fairly challenging terrain. If you've hiked/snowshoed with us in past years, or have relevant experience (you'll need appropriate gear and clothing) we may have a couple of open car seats...
