I am going to do a short ride of about 45min-1hr on Thursday, on roads
near campus. Forecast is chance of snow; but no wind. As long as the
snow doesn't obstruct riding on the road or visibility, we'll go. I
have class til 12:40 Thursday, am free any time after. Unless enough
people have a 12:50-2:10 class and want me to wait until later, I'm
thinking we go at 1PM.

I suggest people bring gloves and ear/neck protection if you think
you'll need it. We'll meet at library commuter lounge and leave from
there. We will be going at an easy pace, since it'll be cold and we
won't have enough time out there to warm up properly. This is just to
get our legs spinning in preparation for the spring.

I don't anticipate having to cancel the ride, but if I do I will post
it here. Also, I will be at the commuter lounge at 1PM regardless
whether it is cancelled or not.

Unfortunately, this semester I have tight schedule on Tuesday and
Thursday.
So, if anything, I will only be able to do rides on some MoWeFr's.

There will be more rides; it's just that this Wednesday is forecasted
for hail, and also the Freewheel collective is running a table at the
RecycleMania event on Wednesday afternoon. I am free wednesdays in the
middle of the day, and friday all day. Perhaps next week we'll figure
out another ride which fits.

The freewheel collective is a club on campus that meets Tuesday nights
at 6-9PM in the student union and operates a community bike shop;
there you can learn how to fix your own bicycle and have access to
tools and get help from experienced club members. There's also a
selection of old bicycles repossessed and from junk piles that
students can fix up and make their own.

The club website is here: http://www.ic.sunysb.edu/Clubs/frwheel/

The club will have a table from 12:30 - 2PM today in the SAC lobby if
you want to stop by. There will be a contest for prizes as well
