Fits like a 60cm I think, but Good deal for a tall guy who wants a very nice bike.

I'm in for Worlds. Probably a good idea to start thinking about hotels and such now.

ANNOUNCING - CX Workshop on Saturday, August 25.

Time - 8-10 am - Cunningham Park in Queens. Meet by the Tennis Courts. (google map it).

How to get there - if anyone else is going apart from Whitey and myself, then we'll need to create a cue sheet and let people meet and ride from GAP at 7am.

If the group is big enough, I'll lead the ride if I have to.

My plan is to work on mount / dismount technique, handling technique, shouldering technique. Short and longer courses will be used to work on these things. 

Riding on the MTB trails is optional.

I also plan on shaking down some wheels, so people can try out different tire combinations if they'd like to (and ride 9 speed). I also can bring some clinchers if people want to try different ones.

Please let me know via the forum if you want in.


Also in mentoring.

Ordered a G&T frame from Van Dessel . . . eta early Sept. 

Just mounted my 'cross tires. 

Wife is in the back poking around on her travel sites finding us a suitable B&B in Northampton (Nov 2-3). She wants to know whether to book 1 or 2 nights.

 I'm ready for a new season.
What is in Northampton Nov 2/3?
(and congrats on the G&T)
Cross race, of course.

UCI 1 & 2

I'll need company

@dstokes - we'll be at Northampton.

Staying a bit north of there in Greenfield, with Liz's cousin.

Will be racing both days.

Signed up for Nittany and Whirlybird. Nittany is filling up. I think 234 has 99 people. Can we start discussing rides soon? I need to go with a cat 4 on Sat. Probably have to ride my old bike.
1. I'll be at Nittany both days, but our car is full up, sorry.
2. I'm on the fence about Charm City - who's going?
3. I'm registered for Whirlybird but can't make it. Anyone want my spot? I can email and ask if they'll reassign it.
4. I'll be at Providence CX both days - logistics TBD
5. I'll be at Cycle-Smart (Northampton) both days - logistics TBD

Repeat Cx clinic.
September 8 at Cunningham park queens. 8Am start.
Myles should be there as well.

Perlberg will bring cones.
you will get better.

Stokes can you copy last week's info with the above and put on calendar? Maybe in mentoring too?

Hugs
shit

at a MF wedding that day

why do i miss all the cx clinics?

WHY?!?
On calendar, though I removed the bit about the trails because I know you have no intention of going there.

After riding around the course 150 times non-stop made for an excellent venue to try different tyres (and bikes).

Should I also post the wedding on the calendar in case people want an excuse not to come?


lol

thank you, david

that's very thoughtful of you
I'm signed up for Sunday Nittany 9am race (can't do saturday) as well as Whirlybird. I have room for 3 others in the car. Let me know.

I'll probably head to Town Hall on 10/6 and Highland Park on 10/28.

Definitely Northampton 11/3 and 11/4, Staten 11/10 and Supercross 11/18.

What are people doing the middle of October? Seems like a crazy long break from localish racing (like less than 2 hour drive).
I can make the Sept 8th CX clinic. I can bring barriers.

I have one spot still open in the car heading to Nittany on Sunday 9/16 for the morning races. Let me know if you need a ride.

Hey all, 

Is anyone heading out from NYC on Sat for Nittany I'm looking to catch a ride? Feel free to send me an email: mueller.joseph.j@gmail.com

Thanks
Anyone know anything about the Nittany Venue? Specifically, is it on a snotty private estate that forbids dogs and small adorable children?

thanks,
Marc
Never mind...I'm watching a video and see plenty of pooches. Also lots of kissena kits!
