Williamsburg Bridge

  

50 miles recap from Saturday 4/28/12



From Brooklyn NY, I rode out to the city to meet everyone.

From the city, Downtown (Little Italy/Chinatown)
we went into Brooklyn via

- Williamsburg Bridge
- DUMBO Brooklyn (Down Under Manhattan Bridge Overpass)

- Belt parkway toward Queens
- Marine ParkWay Bridge into
- Rockaway Beach

heading back to the city

- from the Marine Parkway bridge, we went straight all the way down Flatbush Brooklyn, passing by prospect park / Zoo into Manhattan bridge (I hate this route, $1 vans and crazy drivers don't give a F* about cyclist)

Yes, I know this sounds crazy but during the Pre Warmup Red Hook Crit 2012 in Red Hook Brooklyn, I met this rad dude on a green steel Cinelli Gazzetta. Something was interesting about him so I approached him and ask him about his setup. (I have the same frame as my 2ndary bike)

we was chatting a bit about his Bike and he was telling me that Cinelli Sponsored him and he is riding from New York to Toronto, fixed! after RedHookCrit weekend.

Good luck my friend!

Red Hook Crit Brooklyn New York 2012

wow!

Last Night's event - RHC Brooklyn NY 2012 was so much fun.
FYI- you must be a real fan of Track cycling not fixies to be entertained by a event like this.


Main Highlights


- so happy the weather held up, it showed rain on the manifest but it didn't come down till right after the race was finished. It sure wasn't as cold as last year, Thank goodness!! from my observations, last year's outcome was more successful. I'm not too sure what was the reason is but, not as many people showed up.

- 1st place, 3rd time in a row is the recking machine "Dan" Daniel Chabanov, He had more than a 12 second leap from 2nd place. that is simply amazing!!!! there is not competition for him. Just hope for 2nd place.

- There was a few crashes and falls and a broken Carbon fork but no one was seriously injured. God Bless

Enjoy a few photos I captured from my shooter 

Happy Riding!!

See you guys at the next event!
