The future of the annual ride, "In search of the Nude Beach" is threatened by "Operation Shorebird", a proposal of the National Park Service at Sandy Hook that seeks to criminalize skinny-dipping.
1995
Memorial Day '85: Marathon Marvel
The NYCC riders gave a good account of themselves in the recent 24-hour marathon in Central Park during the Memorial Day Weekend. Lin Ehrlich placed second, and Arlene Brimer placed third in the Women's Division. During the 24-hour period, both Lin and Arlene rode 272.95 miles each. ...
In the Men's Division, Ken Sloan placed first and Alex Bekkerman placed third. Each of them rode an unbelievable 442.90 miles during the 24 hours ...
The top three competitors never got off their bikes during the 24-hour period. Their diets, at least for Ken, consisted of bran muffins, cheese or peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, whole wheat brownies and a variety of fruits, mostly bananas and orange slices.
Volunteer
Volunteering at New York Cycle Club
We have no paid staff at New York Cycle Club, yet our Club bursts with vitality.
NYCC is a high-functioning engine with year-round offerings of rides, events, monthly programs, the SIG, ENY and the camaraderie of like-minded members who have found each other through their love of cycling.
If you, as an NYCC member, value what you get from the Club, then it is critical to remember that all of this happens solely from our collective efforts.
The point is... all of us make NYCC the rich community that it is.
To sustain it means we all need to contribute to this collective labor of love called NYCC.
There are so many possibilities!
Here is what you can do in 2012:
- Lead rides if you are already a confident ride leader
- Take ride leader training and become a ride leader
- Lead C rides for our newer members even if you’re a faster rider
- Become our Merchandise Manager and use your marketing skills and imagination to build sales
- Become our Incentives Coordinator and track volunteer efforts and awards of Club gear
- Take charge of our "Discounts to Members" page and develop new relationships to benefit members
- Coordinate our All-Class Ride
- Coordinate our Newcomers Ride
- Promote the Club at Summer Streets
- Develop your own program of interest for members at a venue you arrange
- Do you know Drupal? Are you a programmer? Work with our webmaster to refine the website
We love suggestions if they are accompanied by follow-through!
Remember there is no paid staff. It is only all of us who make things happen.
More of us pitching in to make NYCC a hive of activity equals a stronger, more vital NYCC.
In 2012 we are not going to lose sight of this fundamental fact.
