Fixed Gear for ENY

Submitted by BrettK on Tue, 09/16/2014 - 5:36pm

I have a friend I'm trying to convince riding ENY (and joining the club). Although I strongly recommended that he ride a road bike, he is considering riding his fixed gear.

The question is, are fixed gear bikes allowed for the ENY event. 

Thanks.

Seeking Route advice

Submitted by Sir Roger on Tue, 09/16/2014 - 11:06am

I am planning to do a ride with a buddy later this week and am looking for guidence.  We will drive to somewhere near the Bear Mountain bridge or Cold Spring..and then want to do either a loop encompassing Bear Mnt,  The BM bridge and the Newburg Bridge or a loop through Harriman and Bear Mnt. Something around 50 - 55 miles.

I have checked lots of routes on RidewithGPS the NYCC Library etc but a line on a map tells me nothing about the surrounding beauty of the terrain or suitability of the roads.

If someone has a GPS file of a great route.. plus knows of good safe parking start points I would be very grateful.

Emailing a Garmin file

Submitted by Cyclegalnycc on Mon, 09/15/2014 - 11:11pm

I need to email a tcx file of a particular ride I did to someone without Garmin knowledge.  I would like for them to be able to see the Player function so they can see the actual ride I did with the graphical functions of cadence, speed, etc.  I tried using the "Share" feature in GarminConnect, but ended up going in circles.  Help, please.  Thanks.

Hi Club!

 

Dragging my feet registering for the event and was going to do it tomorrow.  But thought I'd find out if anyone needed to cancel and might want to sell their entry.  I know you can't get a refund but can transfer - so thought I'd ask.

 

Feel free to reach out on the message board or via email [email protected].  Will be happy to use PayPal for payment.

 

Best,

 

Mike
