OK, I hope to see all of you folks there. I'm glad I talked you into it, ChiroVette. You're right, with the way you help folks, marshaling won't change the ride for you. Good for you.

Don't sweat...

ChiroVette, I don't think it's too late. I think I saw more slots open. You get to decide which course you'll do. I'm crazy and signed up for the 100 miles. I might die doing it. There really isn't...

ChiroVette, no you don't have to be a repair wizard. Most of the volunteers don't call themselves mechanics at all. I went to the orientation, and the speaker kept it very short. He said, if you see...

ChiroVette, I volunteer as a marshal on rides like this. I did the 5 boro this year. There is not much work involved. When someone needs help, I stop and help. Then I get back in the ride. It's an...

That's a really good explanation. I needed to be reminded that riding on the streets was almost an act of protest. Now it clearly isn't. I'm glad for the progress. And the most important point is...

I'm pretty sure I won't do it again. It wasn't downright unpleasant, but the fun was limited.

Too bad I couldn't see much from the Verrazano, as the harbor is quite amazing. I came to appreciate all my conditioning. Last year, I rode almost 3,000 miles, and I rode through this winter, so I...

Speaking of hats, at the start of the ride, the volunteer organizers were giving away sombreros, so I put one on top of my helmet. It amused lots of folks, and some called out Cinco de Mayo!

I had committed to doing it as a marshal, so I couldn't back out. It was cold and wet. It was amazing how many people were willing to do it. I brought extra layers and ended up using all but one. I...

I volunteered as a mechanical marshal. I rode it 35 years ago or so and swore never again, because of the crowds. I figure it will be better as a marshal than as a participant. It's going to rain a...
