anyone needs that generic chrome fork they got in the shops - 1" threaded, at 5.5 inches (cut for a 56 frame) lemme know...

Im going, I have no idea how to get there. I mean I know how to get to NYC but not where the swap meet is, I am planning on taking a train, probaly the PATH so if anyone can give me directions. I might bring a few things, I have a pretty new San Marco Strada saddle I'd like to dump off and my LBS has a crate of schwinn metal toe clips and leather straps that I might throw in my bag and try to get rid of. I am hoping to find some good stuff, maybe some new tires, I really want some of those Mavic time trial bars with the deep bends even though I already have bullhorns. And of course I'm always up for a cool shirt.

I'll defnintely be there. Problem is swapmeet starts @ 9 (I'd rather be there early than later ) and the race starts @ 3. That's a long time to be standing around the west side high-way on a cold saturday morning.

dude -- you won't be standing around for long. the west side has a great bike path that runs along the entire length of manhattan, so if you get a bit chilly, ride it off! perhaps if someone here is going to be setting up a table, we should designate it as the BF spot to hang out at and do a small meet-n-greet?

i'll be looking for a few parts for my *first conversion* like gearings and a lockring. i'd be curious to meet you cats as i'm new to this whole fixed gear deal.
