How to remove bike grease from nice bike clothes?
In a rush to fix my flat, I wound up with a lot of bike grease on my snazzy new bike jersey. Any suggestions on how to remove the grease?

River Rd Pesticide Spraying
Two days in a row on training rides I had encountered areas of River Rd that were officially closed due to pesticide spraying. Yesterday it was at the bottom of Alpine/Top of Boat Basin hill and this morning it was at the top of Dyckman. So just a heads up for anyone who is planning to ride that today.

Any exercise is better than no exercise. However, to really improve your fitness level, you have to exercise intensely. If you do not feel burning in your muscles and shortness of breath at least two or three times a week when you exercise, you are not getting a strong enough stimulus to make yourself significantly faster, stronger and have greater endurance.

Visiting from London - local knowledge needed!!
Hi there,
I'm visiting NYC and the Hamptons (Southampton/Bridgehampton area) for a couple of weeks from 16th July and I would like to keep my training up. Looking for recommendations for:
- Where I can rent a good quality road bike in the Hamptons
- Whether there are any organised ride outs I can join in the Hamptons
- Where I can do a decent spin class in NYC without having to join a club
Thank you,
Vicki
