FedEx : “call the police” if bike lanes blocked by truck

FedEx advice on what to do if you see one of their drivers illegally blocking the bike lane : “call the police” – because they’re not doing anything about it. Despite dozens of posts on sites like mybikelane.com, FedEx has taken a no-action stance on the issue. Other competitors, such as UPS, have assigned safety [...]

Busted Trek at Harlem Crit

FLOYD PHOTOS

SILVERSALTY is BACK and doing it again every Tuesday night at Floyd. The photos are just as awesome as always and should give you a pretty good idea of the racing you’re missing out on if you’re not riding flatbush out for the summer race series. Here are a few from the last couple races. [...]

Crash at Floyd in the 3/4 Race

This is a result of the crash I was caught behind in the Floyd Race this past Tuesday. I made the mistake of turning around and watching the blood pour out of this guys helmet for a second before someone tended to the wound. Others were apparently worse off, but my immediate impression was that [...]

Deliveries vs Safe Bike Lanes

It’s nice to have a safe, clear bike lane to ride in, especially when you are legally required to do so. I’m focusing on 2nd Avenue as my example here. The lane has seen good years and bad years, but based on observation and the rough numbers of recorded bike lane violations by motor vehicles [...]

Pinarello, Ridley shirts to be sold at UNIQLO

From La Gazzetta Della Bici, same place you saw those awesome (or maybe lame) tubulars-repurposed-as-belts, word comes that UNIQLO and Ridley/Pinarello will be selling “off bike casual wear”. Could be really interesting. No idea if we’ll see them at the UNIQLO on Broadway, but if they are, expect a hard hitting news report about it. [...]

6th Avenue Bike Lane June Status Update

I used the 6th Avenue lane for my commute uptown this morning. It’s a good example of a lane that has seen a marked decrease in vehicular intrusion rates over the past couple of years. It’s not hard to remember how bad things used to get weekday afternoons between 10th street and 23rd street – [...]

Katusha offloading team gear

Team Katusha has done like Quickstep and opened up an online webshop to offload excess team apparel and equipment. Wait for the euro to drop to the dollar or less and you can probably get a deal out of this. If you’re into rider cards, nows your chance for those as well. Originally posted on [...]
