OMG Louis, I hope she's ok!

Note to self: next ride, bring Espresso Love Gu ... guaranteed to shock the system

...actually, next ride I hope I'm not in an airplane seat somewhere and can make the ride!

Hey all;

So after the Montauk ride on Sunday my knee is really killing me - I don't think I should really ride this week until I get it checked out :( :(

How about next Wednesday the 28th?

That's good Air, keep picking days when I'm outta town, i.e.; last week and next week. Anyways, hope your knee feels better. Give it a break and have fun next week everybody!

Feel better dude. Knee pain usually have something to do with the saddle height. Have it checked.

hahah.. she's fine, just being a girl :lol:

Strange thing is that it's only the right side. Could be saddle height but what's weird is that it hurt more from spinning than from mashing (so when I mashed it felt fine). Walking around today what I think (and also discussions from the roadies I was with) my foot is sliding off the pedal so I'm torquing my knee. They have knee savers I'm going to try out which basically put the pedal out another half inch or so. Also just noticed the knee I'm having a problem also has the much more worn bottom. Post a pic in a few.

Henri - does any other day work better?

jyossarian - sorry! We'll get it together soon enough!

Also going to try to get some of the folks I rode with - really fun group.

How's this for an analysis?

Yay!

Well, if you're going to Carroll Gardens, might as well stretch the legs, go out to Sheepshead Bay, get some RnR, come back to Bklyn Hts. and get some ice cream at Fulton Ferry Landing. Carroll Gardens is close by and the Manhattanites can jump on either bridge to go home.

henria86 05-20-08 08:08 AM

Lol Tues OR THURS

Lucky07 05-20-08 12:53 PM

I'm up for a ride, one of these nights. I've got the singlespeed up and running and it's great for city riding.

Air 05-20-08 05:56 PM

Let's say Tuesday - if the weather is crappy we can shoot for Thursday :)

jeebusaurousrex 05-20-08 09:37 PM

Aw man, sorry to hear about your knee, hope it heals quickly.

GF's bday tomorrow so couldn't have made it anyway. We'll hit up a ride soon.

Air 05-20-08 09:52 PM

Ha - mine too!

slvoid 05-20-08 10:21 PM

What about this thursday?

Air 05-20-08 10:26 PM

I can't (knee) but if you'll want to organize and ride go for it! I just try to be the catalyst :)

Feel better, man. You need some tuna sushi to make it all right.

Back from Vegas; bike's in the car if the ride's on Thurs.

henria86 05-24-08 07:36 AM

So when you say "fun, not speed," what are we talking? 15 mph?

henria86 05-25-08 06:51 PM

that depends.. there's a few hammer heads.. but we always wait for the others to catch up.. its a very smooth going ride...

Air 05-25-08 10:21 PM

We cruise around 12-14 mph but will take frequent breaks and enjoy the scenery. At certain times (within a mile of a destination) we may open it up but it's all for fun, nothing serious at all.

noteon 05-26-08 09:01 AM

Sounds fun. I'm in (as childcare logistics allow). Just keep watching this thread for specifics, or is there an email list of some kind?
