I need a buddy
 

Is anybody on this board interested in being my cycle buddy? I'm thinking 3 to 5 laps around central park, ny, ny (18 to 30 miles) at least three times a week (I'll be doing it 5 nights a week), somewhere between the hours of 7 and 11 pm, with a pace between 17 and 25 mph. I've been doing it for a while now by myself, but sometimes I'll meet up by chance with another fixer and we'll ride a lap or two and I've found it's more fun with some camaraderie. either post here or email me off-list if you're interested.

Thanks...
David

if by central park you mean prospect park...

Yes, that is what I meant. If, by prospect park, you meant central park.

i'm game for some rides. central park, prospect park - it doesn't matter, cos they're both roughly the same distance from my place in brooklyn.

my girlfriend and i might be doing an organized ride out to NJ on saturday, so PM me if any of y'all wanna join... i'll be riding fixed fer sure.

dgs, you were at the century ride last weekend, right?

yes; I was a marshall. Where in brooklyn do you live?

I ride in central park

i'm good for a ride in CP after 8:00ish. sometimes i ride geared and sometimes i ride my track bike. you guys wouldn't throw flaming garbage at me if i showed up with a geared bike would ya?

well, i ride a track bike, so i must live in....

williamsburg, of course! haha, so damn predictable.

I like the sound of that

Okay, it looks like we have some interest in a nightly fixer ride around central park. What times/days are you all available. Post your preferred schedule and let's mak something work. Mine is as follows:

Available for riding on the following days and times (subject to change):

Sunday 7pm - 12am
Monday 10pm - 12am
Tuesday 7pm - 10pm
Wednesday 7pm - 12am
Thursday 7pm - 12am
Friday generally not available
Saturday generally not available

here is my schedule:

monday - sometimes after 8pm.
tuesday - 8pm to 11
wednesday - sometimes after 8pm.
thursday - 8pm to 11
friday - 8pm to 11
saturday and sunday - depends

my schedule's kinda all over the place, but weekday evenings after 7 are generally best. i wouldn't mind the odd weekend ride either, but the weekend schedule is dictated by events with more randomized times...

if we set up a loose schedule for rides, i'll certainly join some of 'em when i can.
