Question for the two candidates for club president: It is said over and over we are an all-volunteer club and it is true professionally credentialed club members have done legal and tax fililng work for the club for free. Yet, breaking with the at least 40 year club tradition that club apparel design is also done for free by a club member, under the stewardship of the club president and presumably other officers, a jersey designer was awarded the contract (i.e.

Hello, I'm thinking about getting one of these for my apartment and since there's no showroom in the city to try it out, thought I'd post here:

Does anyone have one of these and would they offer a quick review?  thanks so much.

Riverside Drive - LOOK OUT FOR PEDESTRIANS

Submitted by MBauer on Mon, 10/21/2024 - 8:36pm

Hi All,

I’m as passionate about cycling as most NYCC members, so I will always stand up for road safety and making riding safer in the city.

Living in the UWS, I’m lucky to have Riverside Park and Riverside Drive right by my doorstep. But when I take my son out in his stroller on the weekends, it’s often ridiculous how fast road cyclists ride and how ignorant many / most of them are towards red lights and hence pedestrians crossing Riverside Drive, causing really dangerous situations for all. This is especially true for riders heading back into the city.
