Queens rides like Central Park

Submitted by CTKelly Sr on Mon, 05/01/2023 - 12:53pm

Thank you in advance,

Might move from Manhattan to Queens.  I have been riding in Central Park for years and am addicted to that 6 mile loop with minimal lights/stops.  Is there anything similar in Queens?  Where do people in Queens go for 25-35 mile rides on a weekday afternoon or morning?

Thank you again!

Hi: I hope to attend this week's meeting. Will there be a "swap table" where people can offer items for sale or adoption?

CP racing (If you can get fully revved up in the middle of the night)

Submitted by CLam on Fri, 04/28/2023 - 1:38pm

.
If you've finished the A-Classics or you're always in the front of the A-Sigs. This video shows what it's like to race in CP on Saturday mornings. Its got coasting in the high 20s on the east side and crashes you have no control over. I'm too old for this s..:-)

Its got lots of expensive carbon and aero socks.

Scarification on RSD

Submitted by George_S on Tue, 04/25/2023 - 6:16pm

Rode down RSD this afternoon and discovered the roadway has been scarified from about 90th down to 80th in anticipation of repaving.

Wasn't sure if this is just the start and will be extended Up or Down.

Professional Bike Fit, or can a member help me?

Submitted by soniaahuja12 on Mon, 04/24/2023 - 9:48pm

Hi All,

I'm in the C-sig...fairly new to biking and loving it (shout out to C1 leaders and riders!). I'm contemplating a professional bike fit but since I'm still not clipping in and am understanding the feel of the bike, I'm wondering if there's at least a step I can take before I invest in that? It would be wonderful if a knowledgeable member can help me out with a bike fit or suggest a more $$ conservative step I can take, first.

Thanks!

Cycling through West Point Garrison

Submitted by mhsimkin on Fri, 04/21/2023 - 6:39am

Hi:

Does any one know the current procedure for cycling through the West Point Garrison?

  1. If we enter a Thayer Gate, will we be able to exit via the Washington Gate?
  2. Will everyone need to complete an AIE form? 
  3. If I lead a group ride, will I need to restrict the ride to citizens only?

 

Thanks
