Submitted by aluna on Mon, 01/14/2013 - 11:55am

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 - 7:22am

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.

Fog before BBQ from WTF!1302 Dirty Aunt Hack.  Also, 110' climbing per mile in the mud.  Beauty don't come easy.  Neither does brisket.

Where to rent / borrow a penny farthing or a tall bike?

Submitted by arvi on Sat, 01/12/2013 - 8:27pm

Anybody have helpful thoughts on where one could rent either a penny farthing or a tall bike (welded double frame sorta thing) for a couple of days (for an event)? I already tried contacting Worksman cycles, but they only sell PFs and won't rent me one.

Any thoughts much appreciated, thanks!
