Thanks @dougiedude ! That would be the Verrazano Narrows Bridge connecting SI to Brooklyn. Went over the GWB a couple of weeks ago myself. Great riding up that way.
When I was living in Jersey, I used to do the 5 Borough tour. Cross winds were a bitch on that bridge.
Let's play a game! All those who posted crabon fibre bikes here check back in with updates 30 years on.
I haven't had as much fun riding in the city in quite awhile as when I did those rides 6 weeks ago in and around Manhattan. Part of it was the novelty, not knowing that you could actually ride the City.... I bet that 5 Borough tour was amazing, but I get nervous around the less-experienced riders...
All systems "go" for today's ride. (Not to worry, 105.012-65 stayed with the command module after the photo op):
So its been too hot and wet recently to go outside much, but bought a trainer and started using Zwift indoors going off the sensors, its bloody brilliant for what it does, highly recommend it to anyone that uses a trainer indoors and doesn't want to have to stare at a wall or watch Judge Judy while riding https://www.strava.com/activities/737831702
Great day to take my 1989 Schwinn Waterford Paramount out for a spin...did two hours solo...good times!
Hey @Mad Dog. Instead of posing , i think you better join him Hey @dougiedude I didnt realize The Big Kahuna was your cycling buddy !
Errrr....The head belongs to Raynald Aeschlimann & torso is Lance Armstrong...[emoji16] Ok...ok...I had a couple of choices for the Cycling Helmet too [emoji14]
Hot dog...two days in a row on my 1989 Schwinn Waterford Paramount...time to bust out the semi-correct era 7-ELEVEN kit...good times!
Just [emoji176]Your enthusiasm bursting with endless energy. I always wondered how you could stay superfit maintaining an athlete built physique inspite of all that confectionery & dessert food. Now I know @Mad Dog[emoji4] You must know 40% of Americans are obese or overweight & only 36.5% are within normal limits. Ok. I'l give you a worrying stat about Malaysians. 1 in every 8 Malaysians is a Diabetic !
Auction of Robin Williams bike collection. A little of everything. https://paddle8.com/auction/robin-williams/
Perfect day today! Although there was a strong head wind no matter which direction I rode. Why is that?
Because that's the way it works. Also, how's the handling regarding crosswinds with the deep carbon hoops?
