not sure if it was intentional or the angle of the camera, but that bit at
the beginning where he's squeezing thru traffic gave me so much anxiety.
i'm living in NYC now and i've always wanted to do this but the crowds and
logistics. i feel a little too old for that much adventure

Me too, Pam! Rivendells only. I have no idea how I’d get the logistics to
work, but If I’m riding the Five Borough Tour, it’s going to be astride a
Platypus!

I was all set to sign up (my first big group ride years ago was so much
fun), but I realized I won't be able to make it this year. Sad... Pam--I

The first week, I split the commute days between walking and riding. Sure,
it's cold on a bike when it's 25* , but I was to my destination in 12

If only pants are required to be carried, then you RBW small saddlesack
should suffice and they would on a flat level surface. If not maybe the
medium saddlesack they sell.
I was always told to avoid carrying extra weight on your body like a
backpack with a load. The load is better
Panniers for sure, and I would recommend getting Pitlock(for wheels)
/pitstoppers (or equivalent) for the allen bolts so that you can feel
comfortable going in for a quick shopping trip without having your wheels

Roberta,
Did anyone make a suggestion to develop a to-do/to-bring checklist?It
took me a few months to develop a routine, gradually finding out what is

Your needs will vary. I have to remember my lights and to charge them the

I would be pretty interested in that front rack if you wanted to sell that
off separate from the bike. If you go that way shoot me a message.

Hi Roberta,
It's a load of fun (I've done it twice, many years ago). The ride through
Manhattan is amazing, but since it's right after the mass start, it's super
packed and you need to be on guard against collisions from
inexperienced/distracted riders. But after the pack spreads out, it
Ahmed is excluding a $200 saddle and $75 pedals. He's pictured the bike
without the $40 basket. He's dropped the price a full $400, so he's paying
more than retail buying back those parts from the future buyer.
...but now you've added a $240 rear rack in the photos? Is that $240
included?
3M is what I would do, I believe that's the product Joe Bell wrapped on my
chainstay. I can't verify that this is a real problem but I always get
queazy when I see steel and paint covered under all that cloth and twine, I
don't know what's happening under there.

On Monday,
3m paint protection film works well. You can remove it anytime.

If you don't want something fancy but does the job, you can use some
"helicopter" tape to protect the frame:

I keep a 1", 8 mill roll handy. For the chainstay, I use a couple of long
strips along the chain stay then finish off with a
I like to cut an old tube lengthwise and use that to wrap the chainstay.
This gets the twine treatment just the same. Looks good to me, and works
great.
I'll try to upload a photo later.

Wanting to protect the lovely long chainstay from chain slaps. I see lots
