As if the Central Park cops, runners, peds and dogs are not enough . . .

Our group almost got taken out this morning at the "S" descent before Harlem Hill by a mother raccoon with a baby in its mouth zipping across the road.  Mother, baby and cyclists doing well.

Expect the unexpected.

Am thinking that we flood their website with multi-thousand dollar orders using fake cards and arrange for expedited shipping to Kandahar.  [User name "nyccgoaway"]

Ride Leader Jerseys for 2010 are in !!!

Submitted by abrowning on Wed, 06/08/2011 - 11:45am

We will begin distribution of the jerseys (58 people qualified by leading 12+ rides in 2010) at the NYCC Club Meeting on Tuesday night, June 14.  Even if you don't intend to stay for the meeting (C SIG and A SIG graduation), please stop by Annie Moore's any time after 6:30 to pick up your jersey.  Also, we will be giving out the water bottles to the 46 people who lead 3+ rides.  Socks are still two weeks away from delivery-  we'll hand those out at the July meeting.

Jerseys can also be picked up from me at my apartment  (West End Ave and 103rd St, Manhattan) most nights (or I can leave them with the doorperson).   Please email me at [email protected] to make these arrangements.

August 2012 - IronMan US Championship to close the PIP

from their website:

The 112-mile bike course spans the scenic cliffs of Palisades Parkway.  In an unprecedented, full closure of the southbound lanes, Palisades Parkway will be open for athletes to complete two loops on this historic road.

...That's pretty sick...

Nyack ride Saturday June 11th 7AM?

Submitted by jferrara9 on Wed, 06/08/2011 - 9:52am

Hello -- I  joined NYCC today.  Was wondering if anyone was interested in riding to Nyack this Saturday.  I would like to leave the park at 7.  I average 18-19 in the park.

Drop me a line if you are interested! 

Thanks

John

Wanted: Bike Travel Case (to buy or rent)

Submitted by AMadoff on Wed, 06/08/2011 - 7:46am

If anybody's looking to unload a sturdy travel case (Trico, Thule, etc.), give me a shout.  I've got two trips planned this summer and would like to bring my bike on the plane with me.  It's a 54cm road bike, so a standard case should be just fine.  My preference is to buy it, but if you're willing to rent it to me we should talk.

Thanks,

Andrew
