Riding with torn ligament?

Submitted by mezzpezz on Sat, 05/16/2015 - 5:46pm
Anyone here ride with an unoperated torn ligament? Just got diagnosed with a torn cruciate ligament, and it's unknown yet if I need surgery. If possible I'd like to avoid surgery, as I need to continue my training for a 7 day ride in November. I'm taking the PT seriously, but curious what to expect once PT is wrapped up and I get back on the bike.

Berks- looking for a bag transport on Monday from Racebrook to NYC

Submitted by RKastrinsky on Sat, 05/16/2015 - 3:29pm

Hi All,

  Is there anyone staying at Racebrook in the Berkshires with a car that is driving back to NYC on Monday and has a space for a bag?  I can pick up the bag anywhere in NYC on Monday evening or later that week- whenever works best for you. 

Please let me know. 

Regards,

Summons to Appear in Court- Palisades Parkway Police

Submitted by augustNYC on Fri, 05/15/2015 - 8:14pm

Have any of you had to appear at the Palisades Parkway court for a biking violation. I am shocked, I don't see how this is in the public good? I could understand a standard ticket but a summons?

Below is what happened.  What is the standard fine? How long does the court proceeding take?

Confusion on South Side for Saturday

Submitted by Cyclegalnycc on Fri, 05/15/2015 - 2:49pm

I received an alert this morning that the south side path will open on Sunday at 4 a.m., leading me to wonder if it wouldn't be open on Saturday.  I called and found out that the south side WILL BE OPEN Saturday.  If you were confused as well, rest assured!

CORRECTION:All of Hudson Terrace Will Be Closed To Cyclists This Sunday

Submitted by RSchmon on Fri, 05/15/2015 - 1:12pm

Re The New York Gran Fondo this Sunday May 17th, and with apologies, I incorrectly reported in a different thread that a section of Hudson Terrace would be open to cyclists (though not motorists) from the GWB to Strictly Bikes, where the finish line of the NYGF will be--as this section is not on the race course.  I have ridden the NYGF each year and was basing this information on prior years when non-GF cycling access to the finish area was always open.

Saturday's Nyack ride moved to Sunday

Submitted by GRoss on Thu, 05/14/2015 - 8:14am

I just revised our Saturday ride to move it to Sunday. The weather forecast for Saturday is 60% chance of rain and Sunday appears to be clear. Look for the listing to reappear once it is approved.
