Problem with recurring rides submission system

Submitted by abrowning on Thu, 07/28/2011 - 5:04pm

To all ride leaders who have been diligently and patiently trying to submit recurring rides:

The system is NOT functioning.  We understand that 1) the multiple rides do not get submitted to the Ride Coordinators, 2) when changes are made, they all might disappear, and 3) sometimes none of the rides appear as submitted.

Until the problem is identified and we have the resources to get it fixed, you will need to submit each ride separately.  It has the webmaster's attention, as do many other important "fixes".  Please do not attempt to use the recurring ride submission system until we notify you on the MB that the problem has been solved.

And thank you for continuing to submit rides-  your fellow club members are very grateful!

Nightmare on Elm St - Sunday 7/31

Submitted by BSullivan on Thu, 07/28/2011 - 3:08pm

 

Lesse and I are really excited to be leading this ride on Sunday. This is the third year we've done it, and it's always been a hoot.

A few people have emailed me about the climbs... how hard are they, really? Some of them are pretty tough - but short. Think Ash - but with a real hard kick... or maybe two. We will approach these with a spirit of camaraderie - urging each other to the top. Other climbs are a little longer but more moderate. Many are full of character; some feature fantastic views. Either way, you'll be going slow enough to take it all in.

Looking for Group Rides in Denver Area Next Week. Suggestions?

Submitted by RCiardullo on Thu, 07/28/2011 - 10:30am

I will be in Lakeville, CO  (the Denver burbs) from Sunday 8.1 through Friday 8.5 then off to Grand Junction. Anyone know of any good A level group rides in the Denver area? I did a web search, but only found a few easy 20 mile rides!

Where is the membership directory on the website?

I can't seem to find the membership directory on the web site.  Could someone tell me where it is?  Thank you.

From Bicycling magazine, July 2011:

Ithaca, New York: Big hills, fast descents and local wine make central New York a cycling nirvana.

Ups And Downs: The Two Gorges Ride, a Finger Lakes Cycling Club Sunday outing, connects several glacier-carved waterfalls to create a 28-mile route through rolling countryside. The route climbs wooded backroads, visiting Treman State Park's 12 cascades, including its 115-foot-high centerpiece, Lucifer Falls.
