1 rider soggy "club ride" (c'mon people!).

Spun up to Piermont with Setanta rider Todd Brilliant who was lamenting how he gets shelled on all his club rides because his teammates are all 340 watt FTP monsters. Caught the Vuelta at the Piermont bike shop. Felt sorry for the 10 BMCs lined up for demo, and the BMC's who blew today's stage. Hammered home in the deluge — cop parked at the left turn exiting 9W. Beware!

@Thierry. We smuggled back some St. Nectair Crottins de Chevre — Delicieux!

Btw, how awesome is Air France?

Anybody riding their bike this weekend? I've got a new bike to try out and I'll be at Brooklyn Bridge at 8 unless I hear of something else going on.

Dude I'm still in a car headed down from north of Providence; my only working bike is the Pork Chop Express and it's in pieces in with sand buckets, a stuffed giraffe and whatever cookies are left...

Won't be home until after midnite; even bb is looking dicey. Might have to do the PP special or just call it a rest day.

FYI. NYC century is today BB is a cluster and I'm sure other roads are including PP.

David Yang

Sep 08, 2013 at 12:25 PM

Anyone still thinking of fort Lee crit?

Jules

Was looking to see if anyone was super motivated so I would be motivated to get up off my ass!

No cross vélo yet so I can't partake in Saturday's pain-fest at Cunningham, so planning on riding up the ol' 9W on Saturday. Leaving BB at 7, to be back in BK by noon. Anyone want to join?

Ryan J

Sep 13, 2013 at 03:03 PM

I may go out tomorrow at family man hour - need to be home by 11:30 or so

Patrick Jones

Sep 13, 2013 at 03:13 PM

Hi Kayt! At 7? I can try. Last week I said 8 like it was the most certain thing ever, and well...

WilliamDC

Sep 13, 2013 at 03:13 PM

Ryan: what time is family man hour?

Ryan J

Sep 13, 2013 at 03:17 PM

Eh, prolly no later than 7 BB. That would allow time for a Piermont loop and still getting back to Brooklyn by 11:30, as long as we don't spend 30 min at the donut shop.

Mark Taylor

Sep 13, 2013 at 07:24 PM

Im looking to go early Sunday , earlier the better

Graydon Kolk

Sep 13, 2013 at 07:28 PM

So would that put you Brooklyn people on the NJ side of the GWB at 8am?

Kayt Mathers

Sep 14, 2013 at 12:18 AM

Hey guys: @Patrick, I know 7 is so early, but hope you can make it! @Ryan, I'll be at BB 7 am, and while I'm usually the person who wants to stay at the donut shop for two hours, I need to be back before noon too. @Graydon, 7 am departure from BB puts us a GWB at 8 am, more or less. Hope see y'all--or some of y'all--tomorrow.
