An Oy Velo cult member pointed out that there is a sanctioned memorial race in honor of Nancy Morganstern at Bear Mt, NY. Nancy was a racing cyclist who died on 9/11. For more about Nancy, click here:

In happier news, Oy Velo has given into peer pressure and has minimized the size of the adorable Oy Velo mascot. The new jersey is available on the site now.
Finally, tomorrow is Israeli Independence Day! You’ll note it coincides with Bike Month. Coincidence? I think not. Happy Israeli Independence Bike Day.

Outstanding new site! Served Doug Shapiro and the rest of his Austro-Daimler teammates, by driving and wrenching for them at the 1980 Coors Classic, which dates me!
Have a few Credit Agricole, or “CA” schwag souvenirs; not Saul’s but a teammates gloves, autographed mussettes and things from Amgen Tour of CA that they raced, or in his case, appeared at,… and know where you might find a former SKIL teammate to stalk one of your latest MIA “Cycling Greats,” Jonathan Boyer (helping with the Coffee Bike, and Team Rwanda projects in Africa)! But don’t know if that could qualify me as an “Oy Velo cult member.” LOL.
Maybe if I told you where in Southern California I’d most likely be found for Shabbat,… naaah.
Good DIY but not nearby,
