Girls on bikes (was Weather forecast for tomorrow's NY Day ride...)
New Year's Day riders:
Weather forecast for tomorrow afternoon's NY Day ride says:
"Thursday: Fine. Mostly sunny. Min: 18°C Max: 34°C Moderate to fresh northwest winds ahead of a late fresh to strong southerly change."
Could be a tad warm...if the southerly kicks in around 5 PM we should be OK, otherwise bring plenty of water, wear your lightest gear and dress accordingly:

Bastards stole my brand new bike!
Well I'm goddamn furious... just brought my new $650 bike last week for Xmas, and some pricks went and stole it out of my garage. And they also took my sons smaller 4 speed hybrid. I'm FURIOUS right now.... I want to KILL! I haven't even had it a WEEK, for christ sake.
So sorry, but any plans I have for starting mountain biking just went out the friggin window.

Any suggestions? Particularly on where she can hire/beg/borrow a bike from. Come on now, don't be shy!

Bike insurance
Does anyone have their bikes insured against damage while out riding? I believe most contents and portable insurance wont cover you if you are actually on the bike.
