Welcome to the Tue, 01/21/2011 – 06:00 edition of Off Topic! You are looking at the next step in the evolution of VCN, the Off-Topic page. Have you ever been frustrated because you had a burning desire to call someone a sandbagger and could only hope to be timely by posting your comment to a photo gallery page or on a page describing a charity ride?
Well, your prayers have been answered! You can post your comment from the home page and it magically comes to rest here with the other orphans from the land of Misfit Comments. The page gets refreshed every day, but not to worry! Each day’s page will be archived and treasured, so you can look back on past pages with pride, shame or disgust-depending on how the day’s conversation went. So post away! We’ve got an internet to fill up.

Councilman Ulrich’s attempt to license bicycles is not going anywhere. He’s a junior GOP’er without support from Bloomberg or the council leadership.
The police crackdown in CP is for real and city is looking to stop cycling training in CP. With cars out of the park for most of the day, cyclists have become the new public menace. We do not yet know the full game plan.
The threat to future racing at FBF is real. There is support to build new trails and make it easier to bike to FBF but the plan is to remove the runways and eliminate bicycle racing. 2011 could be the last year of racing at FBF.
And in that vein… today is the FINAL day to provide recommendations on the redevelopment of Floyd. Right now, bike racing is not part of the long term vision for FBF. Unless you want bike racing there to go away for good, click the link below and speak up.
