Do we really need a well-known sports figure nearly wiping out a couple of tourists in Central Park?  See NY Times article.  And all because he was reading a text on his cell phone while riding!

At this coming Tuesday's meeting, at Annie Moore's Restaurant and Pub, 50 E. 43rd St. (bet. Mad. and Vand. Aves.), the club is offering a free refillable flask of our October meeting sponsor's First Endurance EFS Liquid Shot for the first 36 attendees who purchase dinners. The EFS Liquid Shot flasks retail for $5.99 and you can choose one of three flavors: Vanilla (my favorite), Wild Berry and their new Kona Mocha, as long as the supply lasts. For more information about this terrific and other First Endurance products please check out their web site: www.firstendurance.com.

What shifters are compatible with Shimano DuraAce 9-speed? Ultegra, I'd guess. 105s, too. SRAM? Others?
Thanks.

Kaboom sideways while sweep-marshalling the 100 mile route on Sunday's Twin Lights ride - - fall caused by avoiding a massive SUV backing up blindly from diagonal parking (like in Englewood; but with only 1 narrow lane here each way in Brielle, NJ). We weren't going fast, and luckily were anticipating that risk. Still got impacted, though.

 Crossed/bumped my front wheel with the rear of the person ahead of me. Almost righted myself, but then went down on the opposite side of where my wheel crossed his. I fell directly sideways on right side; pretty much from a dead stop. Felt/heard my helmet hit (bounced twice). Slid a bit, some scrapes but not much. No breaks, concussions, or such.

The ticket I received which I posted on this Message Board last week remains unresolved. One poster advised fighting it, but this might hinge on what the cost of the infraction is vs the value of my time. 

Try as I might, I cannot get an answer to this penalty of the violation. I cannot get a human being on the phone from DMV to answer the question. It does not appear on the ticket or online, at least that I can uncover.

There is something wrong with giving a choice to plead guilty or not but having no idea what the penalty is. Justice might be blind, but she is not minding the store either.

Hi! I'm just wondering when sign-up for the 2013 SIGs and STSs will be open. I'm already excited to sign up and don't want to miss my chance!

Thanks,

thanks for major taylor friends and robert for doing the 7 deadly hills with me.  what a workout.

there's a new king of the mountain - simon from major taylor.  he beat everyone, hands down, on all 7 hills.  even on the last hill, i gave the others a head start and he still passed everyone.
