Welcome to the Tue, 12/20/2010 – 02:00 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.
does anyone need me to wear a wire? I have friends and confidants in some of the highest reaches of the super exclusive New York City amateur cycling scene, and would be willing to betray any and all of them for the right price. Concerned that a friend might be doing extra training laps pre or post group ride to get ahead of you? WIRE. Want to know how that guy who didn’t get dropped on the first lap at bear like you did manages to keep his BMI under 20? WIRE. … WIRE!!!
Can we get a velodrome like this?

Lucarelli & Castaldi sponsorship in the form of free legal defense for when someone goes over the rail?
Can’t we put one of those basketball court type chain link cages over it? And why wouldn’t a rooftop velodrome work?
i can buy upgrade point… ???
won’t work because I bet in NYC bikes are not allowed on roof tops. But seriously, NYU has a running track, but picture how big of a roof you’d need for velo and your options get very few.
lets race like the Swedes!!! parking lot criteriums!!!
Might get dizzy…up X flights of spiraling ramps and then across the roof and then descend the other side…
races are based on time, like most crits, and cx…
