Morning Central Park laps - end of season coffee/breakfast celebration

Submitted by LWintner on Mon, 08/29/2016 - 2:44pm

Some of the B16 morning lappers have decided to get together this Thursday, 9/1, for coffee and/or breakfast after our laps to celebrate our great summer riding season.  All are welcome whether you actually did the laps with us or the 17's, 18's, or A's or just thought about doing the laps but rolled over and went back to sleep!

Danny and Linda will be going into morning hibernation till next March (Jerry and Susana will take over starting next week through February) so it would be great to get together this week to pat ourselves on the back for getting out to the Park at 5:45am all summer!

Looking for a biking companion for Tuesday 9/6 morning ride in Central Park

Submitted by sheenaiyengar on Sun, 08/28/2016 - 5:23pm

Hi everyone,

I'm thinking about going on the B-level ride at 6 am on 9/6. Is there anyone who would be interested in being my biking partner on a tandem? I'm blind, so I would need somebody to be the captain. Let me know if you'd want to join me! It should be fun :)

As we all know, helmets are discouraging people from cycling. And are driving down the cost of healthcare.

We would only know if the helmet actually saved him if he was to repeat his accident without his helmet. Does anyone out there feel the need to email him the suggestion?
