A friend is coming from out of town to do the century -- needs a bike to rent or borrow for the day

Male, around 5'6" -- road bike -- if any of you have a bike or know of a shop that rents something fitting please respond here or call 770-881-6440    thank you !

Hi there, I bought a women's M Escape NY jersey and it's a little snug. If you have a L and want to trade or want to buy a M for $80, please let me know. You can reach me at [email protected].

Thanks! 

I am taking a bike overseas and am looking to borrow or rent a hard shell bike case. Can anyone help me out? I would need the case next week and would return it the week of 9 Sept.

I can be reached at [email protected]

Thanks!

I signed up for the Major Taylor Iron Riders’ “The Legends Ride Montauk 125” this Sunday, 8/18.  Ride leaves for Montauk Point from Prospect Park at 6:00 AM Sunday morning; they ask participants to be there at 5:30 AM - Ouch! 

If anyone else signed up for the ride and would like company riding to Prospect Park at that horrible hour - let me know.   I’ll be leaving the upper West Side about 4:30 AM – Ouch.   Could meet you pretty much anywhere between the Upper West Side and the Brooklyn Bridge.

I'm a B rider who wants to try an A ride and after looking on the Upcoming Rides I found 6 rides that say:

Ride 1: "A-SIG or equivalent paceline skills"
Ride 2: "Solid pacelining skills and safe and cooperative riding are a must"
Ride 3: "Pace Lining skills are a must"
Ride 4: "for riders with steady paceline skills, A-SIG or equivalent a must"
Ride 5: "for experienced riders with A-SIG or equivalent skills"
Ride 6: "For experienced riders with steady paceline ability, A-SIG or equivalent skills a must"

I definitly understand the need for these rider requirements.

3 Questions:

1) How does one develop paceline skills without doing an A-SIG?

Can anybody please share a template or excel doc that most club rides use to make cue sheets.

All,

In response to some of the concerns related to members signing up for multiple concurrent rides, the Board has agreed on the following changes, which will be implemented over the coming weeks.

It was really good to see a proper biker at this Hamptons event. This was not a bicycle event, but Bentley and Monte Grappa fans do need to know about high quality bicycles.

Here is another photo of the event, unfortunately not a picture of Michael.
