Was called Coney Island or Bust. It was amazing. What you might notice is that I'm not listed in the top 15. Well, that's to be expected. It was my first and I had no idea what I was up against. In the end, I finished somewhere reasonable (like the top 20 maybe) and left with some pulled calf muscles and brusies from crashing into a fence coming off the Manhattan Bridge. Since I'm new at this, I'll try and explain what a new york alleycat is like. It's fucking insane. Everyone has to run to their bikes from the start point, jump on and just go. As fast as they can. There were four check points. If a rider finished and didn't make the checkpoints, they were disqualified. Most of the checkpoints were in manhattan, which made the ride extra crazy because the sprint had to go through busy city streets, including Times Square. That's pretty much all I can say. Most people finished the 18 mile course in about an hour, which means their avarage speed was 18 miles an hour. pretty good for fixed gears and two wheels.posted at: 02:22 | path: /cycling | permanent link to this entry
