I was surprised to see the acreage completely barren.  Obviously, not closed for winter (they never were), but for good.  Anyone have info?

Help With Shoe Shopping

Submitted by JWehmeyer on Mon, 01/14/2013 - 4:40pm

After fifteen+ years on my trusty hybrid with toe cages, I'm buying a mid-level road bike and switching to the (oddly named but I get it) 'clipless' tech. Looking for any steerage on a source and/or brand for shoes. My feet are a bit weird: wider at the toe end, with narrow heels. So shopping for street and athletic shoes has always been hit or miss. Have spent some horrible days in non-fitting ski boots/skates.

Online or brick-and-mortar, all suggestions welcome. Thanks in advance!

Submitted by aluna on Mon, 01/14/2013 - 12:55pm

Just curious if anybody knows the official day for the A SIG 2013 century ride? I heard that last year it happenned the day before the Gran Fondo NY. Wondering if that will be the case again this year.

Bar Mitts on group rides?

Submitted by MGately on Mon, 01/14/2013 - 8:22am

I'm curious what others think of Bar Mitts on group rides. They're currently promoted on the NYCC home page, and are the lead story in the weekly email, in connection with a raffle at the February club SIG/STS meeting. But when someone wore them on a ride I did a few weeks ago they struck me as unsafe - no hand signaling of obstacles or turns - not a wheel I'd want to follow.
