So, I managed to get me and my bike safe to NYC. Cycled into work this morning, about a mile down Broadway.
Started chatting to some peeps on the NYC version of this forum.
And then, before I knew it, i'd registered for my first ever Alleycat. Check it out. I have a feeling that this is either going to be the best or the stupidest (or both) thing I have ever done.
Wish me luck London.
ps - what side of the road do they ride on over here?

Don't need to know your way around NYC do you to race down broadway. Its one long road.

Sounds great...go for broke!!

In the end I dropped the broadway race and did the checkpoint ECMC event on Wednesday instead. The weather was really sucky and the roads were slippy as hell , made me think that the BB would be too dangerous!

Anyway, I ended up doin loads of ECMC events and had an absolute blast.

As for results: nowhere of note although I did get a t-shirt prize at the awards in Sunday - mainly because I was standing in the right place when they threw it into the throng :-)
