[Alex Bitterman]

Hi all,

I'd love to join for some rides! I'm on the UWS with a Clem H  (and a new 
Homer that's currently with my dad but will be here soon). Kissena sounds 
like a good starting point.

 I've just moved up to brooklyn with a ram, would love to get in on

 yesterday while the weather was nice.

[RBW] Re: ISO Brooklyn Riv Bike 'Gang'

[Minh]

We're still organizing so anything is up for discussion.  i've done the 
ride down to Ft Tilden, its not too bad even tho there are no bike lanes 
along Bedford.  Roll n Roaster gives you a free water if you wear your 
helmet inside :)

in a few weeks once weather and places open up, we could keep riding pass 
ft tilden into town.

i like the velodrome idea, but we should plan that for later in the summer 
and make it big cross group thing, like Battle of the Boroughs

as far as getting things going sooner, my proposal would be to keep things 
light and loosely organized, so if folks have something planned e.g. 
"riding to brighton beach this weekend for kachapuri anyone wanna come."

[Justin Kennedy (Brooklyn, NY)]

Is there a date? I'd be up for something soon-ish but away camping and 
biking in the Gunks this weekend. 

One super chill Brooklyn/Queens ride is like is down Bedford Ave to 
Sheepshead Bay and then over the bridge to Fort Tilden. There are a few 
trails through there and semi-private beaches all around. Could pick up 
lunch en route at Roll N Roaster ;-)

Here’s an idea- a meet up at the Kissena Velodrome and some cruising around 
the trails that surround it. Would be fun to get in some races with baskets 
and saddlesacks flying around. Plus, Queens is neutral territory for the 
Brooklyn and Manhattan gangs.

 Now that weather is warming up, anyone want to start 
 arranging/proposing rides, i dunno if it needs to be super formal.  As far 
 as organizing methods, any votes?  keep it in this post, create a 
 sub-group?   private email list?

 And for any new folks that didnt see this originally, feel free to jump 
 in, we are not trying to replace the group, but trying to create a smaller

 weather is breaking so lets get out there!  maybe Kai will bring that 
 new Ram!

Hey,

I've just moved up to brooklyn with a ram, would love to get in on rides 
and to connect with riders here. Maybe its best to get a ride organized 
through this thread first and then figure out a good way to keep connected? 
I'm up for anything from that big bridge route kai suggested way back to 
just doing a lap around prospect park. I rode out to forest park yesterday 
while the weather was nice.

Keep me posted if some rides get organized, for sure interested. I am in 
Bed Stuy with a Clem L and a Sam. Sounds fun! Chase

[RBW] Re: ISO Brooklyn Riv Bike 'Gang'

[Roberta]

I cannot do any riding with the group on a regular basis, seeing that I 
live about 90 miles south in Philadelphia, but if the group comes over to 
the NJ side for a ride or part of ride, I'd join you.  It's always nice 
meeting like minded people.

Kai, I love your Roscoe mixte, and especially your homemade weaved basket.  
That is art to my eyes.

Re: [RBW] Re: ISO Brooklyn Riv Bike 'Gang'

[Benjamin L. Kelley]

I'm not in Brooklyn any longer but lived in Greenpoint from 2018 to 2020.
I always saw lots of Rivs in Greenpoint and Williamsburg.   There's a guy
with an orange QB that lives on Eagle, Don't recall his name. But we talked
a few times riding down Franklin.  I lived Huron and it was always funny
that there were two orange QBs with honjo fenders just a couple blocks from
each other.
There's also a late middle aged fellow that had a AHH that frequeuented
Ovenly that I ran across occasionally, I believe he had other Rivs too.
I say I'd see at least one Riv a week on Kent/Franklin/West or going over
the Pulaski.
Sorry I can't point you towards any specific people, but Williamsburg and
Greenpoint are pretty Riv thick.

718 Cycles in Park Slope used to stock Rivs but not sure they do any more.
Joe is pretty friendly you might stop in and if hes not busy chat him up
and see if he can point you towards anyone.

[Patch T]

I'm in, and know a few folks not on this list who would love to ride too.

Kai, both routes sound fun.

Anyone riding during winter? I am! I went out yesterday and about to go 
again today on my newly rebuilt Quickbeam. Photos and report to come, 
separately.

Hi Minh,
I'm on the UWS in Manhattan and I'd be happy to join you.A few years ago I 
organized a meet up at a beer garden in Greenpoint. Only a handful of us 
came but fun. Would love to repeat when the warm weather comes.Actually, 
for those fully vaccinated and comfortable eating in restaurants, I suppose 
we could meet even now.

[RBW] Re: ISO Brooklyn Riv Bike 'Gang'

[Kainalu V. -Brooklyn NY]

Cold rubber is fast rubber, let's shred! (says the guy with two kids and a 
job that burns the present daylight hours away)
I'd like to do a ride that started with a ferry across the river to Jersey 
City, winding our way up to the George Washington bridge. From there we 
could head north over the Hudson bridge to the Bronx, then weave our way 
down the Harlem River and East river, crossing every bridge we can. Every 
crossing possible might be fun? Or something less ridiculous would be fine, 
if you're into that sort of thing...
