	Here is an article I wrote last year for this group. When the day of the double came, I was amazed at how fast the group formed a pace line. We kept that...

	My weekend schedule is busier than my weekdays. Anybody out there with free time during the week who'd like to do some long rides? Brad...

	Bruce, Thanks for the info. Question: What's the detour you take through Canaan to avoid the downtown area? Brad...

	... The short cut is not on the cue sheet, but you want to turn left on North Elm street. It is the first left (and up a small hill) after you pass the Snack...

	Dave, I'm good to go all week, with the exception of Wednesday morning. The weather's so cool we'll have to wear parkas to simulate actual ride conditions. I...

	Yes, I did this once a couple of years ago with my daughter on a buddy bike and it was scary. We saw several accidents including one that looked very serious....
271		Davidlili@...	May 7, 2001 5:29 pm
	Brad, I have heard of too many people getting hurt at Bike NY to risk it. Sounds like a madhouse, though I'm sure an interesting tour of the city. What about...

	Hi Bruce Didn't you know that ride is known as the Five Boro Bike Crash. Glad you had a good time. Tom [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]...

274		Brad Kenyon kenyontrede@...	May 9, 2001 6:43 pm
	Dave, Next Tuesday morning looks great. I've got more flexibility around logistics, so if child care etc. is an issue we can meet up your way. Otherwise, we...

	Tom It was Brad, not Bruce who went. What an appropriate name, there were bikes and bodies everywhere-which is only a mild exaggeration. The one that sticks...
276		Davidlili@...	May 10, 2001 1:25 am
	Tuesday sounds good for me, Brad, at your place. How does 9.30 sound? [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]...
277		Davidlili@...	May 10, 2001 1:27 am
	And the AP news story, quoting ride organizers, stated that no one was injured on the ride. Of course not. An no one got a flat tire either. [Non-text portions...

280		bkwells@...	May 12, 2001 1:54 am
	Opps! For some reason, Dave Wilson's ride on Saturday May 12th was listed as starting at SUNY in the newsletter. It is being lead from Katonah, not SUNY. I...
281		Davidlili@...	May 12, 2001 8:13 pm
	Don't know if anyone showed up in SUNY for my ride, but there was no one in Katonah, so I had a nice ride to Fahnestock and back, alone. - Dave Wilson ...
282		bkwells@...	May 13, 2001 1:02 am
	... Sorry about that Dave. I found out it was my fault in submitting the ride to Rachel. I had all SUNY starts and I guess I missed your Katonah start. My...

	Dave, Lou Wexler and I had a nice ride from SUNY @ 8:35 on Saturday. I thought the start location was wrong - but who am I to question the official club ...
284		Davidlili@...	May 14, 2001 10:54 pm
	Dang, I should have showed up at SUNY. It was question of what people looked at more - the newsletter or the listserve. Turns out the website won. [Non-text...
