I'm planning for Saturday , so I'm praying that ends up being the easy day 
I'm up for the ride Saturday... riding a single speed (track bike) up hill >>.lol
I'll see everyone at gwb at 9 tomorrow morning. Be prepared- it's going to be a cold one!
I'll be there 8 a.m. BB, 9 a.m. GWB.

@PatrickRodriguez - You have to have brakes to be in the group ride!
Wimps
Anyone riding tomorrow? Nothing hard, probably just river road up to Mattie.
Phil and I are heading out early 8AM GWB…slow ride(zone 1, 2, -185w) to Piermont 
Oops is there a new members rode tomorrow?
Late leaving today. Chased up 9W after some white clothed, dayglo orange helmeted types from a Kissena clone club.

Currently planning on being at the GWB at 9am on Sunday 11/16/14 (aka TOMORROW).

Always looking for conversation and adventure.

My back and bike is all kinds of f-ed up these days...might be out for adventure to see if I can ride without pain. #cuzsitting/standingstillhurtslikeamotherf-er

Nothing that a little chain lube won't cure.

Was referring to my CX bike because...

CROSS IS BOSS!

And that's what I really want to be doing these days.
Haha! Just seeing this now. I love these pictures. So fun! Not riding tomorrow after all. . . . aargh eloy said:

will be at gwb at 9.
Damn. Back. No. Ride. Got all suited up in my dress whites and everything, only to be forced to turn around, pedal strokes out of the gate.
@Marc, bummer, missed you on the ride. Hope that back gets better for Supercross.

A nice sized group today going at a casual tempo.  JP led us through NJ and when we got to Piermont, Craig L., Tim Wang, and Thierry went with him to do a few more climbs before rejoining us at Mattie's shop where Vlad, Jeff White, Patrick, and myself were face deep in coffee and donuts. Dirt roads and 9W back.  I pinch flatted my front wheel in the woods (again!), but this time I had a long enough valve stem so the wheel change was relatively quick.  Also I was the only chump that sprinted for the hilltop line before Strictly's (nothing feels as sheepish going for an uncontested sprint) so that was fantastic.

Next week is Supercross!
I'm going to piggy back and say rick and I had a nice endurance pace to piermont and back. We had to go early since I had a basketball game to go to at 1 in Bayridge (my daughter's).

Talked with Mattie for a bit, and ran into Ryan and Konrad of the Sommerville factory team Brooklyn fame. Good times.
Frozen on Ice today with a pack of kids. What I lost in saddle time I more than made up for eating cotton candy and having my retinas burned out with plastic toys so expensive they were clearly manufactured on Krypton...

Next time (sigh)
Anyone going out this morning. It'll be warmer than usual, hitting the 50's mid day
I'd like to ride Thursday morning in prospect , anyone else

I might be into it, but we can move this over to the morning park ride thread.
I would like to ride out to Piermont or further on Thursday. 8am BB.

Also Friday and Saturday, but let's not get ahead of ourselves.
Black Friday ride. 8am BB.
Chill day on 9W, definitely one of those I want to turn around and make pancakes days. 
GWB looked like a Gursky photo, not a soul in sight all the way over. 
Vlad and I did the low road to Piermont and back through the IBM campus which is a nice switch-up.

I drove out (gasp) to Piermont to go MTN bike shopping; saw both of you climbing state road shoulder to shoulder like a couple of old pros. Brought a tear of pride to my eye, and a second one for envy.
^ Did you find anything Jules? Half off is pretty sweet.
Anyone feel like ripping it up tomorrow? 8am BB.
