guided tours in Turkey and other locales outside the US

Submitted by lodgemich on Sun, 12/28/2014 - 12:28pm

Can you recommend some good companies that organize bike tours and other places outside the US? I'm looking for quality, not luxury, and a good price.

I just made a trip down to Gotham Bikes and found the store closed and empty.

Revised start time for Teaneck lunch 12/25

Submitted by DHudes on Wed, 12/24/2014 - 9:36pm

The Teaneck lunch ride is postponed to DEPART 10AM. Meaning, if you roll up at 10:15 AM we're long gone.

The ride listing is revised, it'll be back ...

Lunch is at Shalom Bombay at noon. We have a reservation.

You may want to wear layers tomorrow due to wind.

Trying to decide if this is a good idea. Accuweather has winds above 25 mph for most of the day.

A Uber driver is a distracted driver by profession

Submitted by DCuperstein on Sun, 12/21/2014 - 7:36pm

When a passenger asks for a ride through the Uber app, an Uber driver has 15 seconds to respond or he will lose the fare. If he loses to many fares he gets temporarily suspended. On those 15 seconds he has to decide if he is interested in going to that part of town usually while he is driving. How is this legal is beyond me! Uber is causing dristracted driving to be part of the profession of their drivers for every single ride they are requested for.

Cycling on New York roads

Submitted by roussell85 on Sun, 12/21/2014 - 5:53pm

Hi 

I am new to NY and new to this club so hello!

I am used to cycling in London where there are now a large number of dedicated cycle superhighways that take you from North-South and East-West, out of the way of motor vehicles. I am also used to pretty good quality roads. I very rarely suffered punctures from potholes. The cycle paths are freshly tarmacced in a blue rubber material that provides comfort and grip for cycling. And London roads generally are in pretty good condition.
