Celebrate Valentine’s Day at NYCC Meeting!

Calling all NYCC couples!

See that there is a 7 AM ride listed; but the 9AM ride has disappeared from the message board---what"s UP ???

Regarding the previously listed 9am start at Grant's Tomb !

Join us for a C SIG Preview Ride this Saturday to New Jersey. The ride will be about 30 miles at a casual 13 mph pace. We'll be offering tips and coaching so you can get an idea of what to expect from the C SIG.

Look for the ride listing as we're hoping the ride will be posted by late tonight or early tomorrow.

Marty Epstein, owner of Marty's Reliable Cycles, co-director of Gran Fondo NJ and a huge supporter of NYCC, would like to inform our members and the cycling community that on February 21, 2017 from 6:00-9:30PM at "Skylands at Randolph"- 792 New Jersey 10 - Randolph, NJ 07869 that they will be presenting: " Rep. Night", with special guest: Fabian Cancellara. Over $3,000. of raffle prizes will be awarded, in addition to great deals on cycling gear. Tickets are only $5.00. For more information and to purchase tickets, please click on the link provided below.

We're looking to spend a part of May and/or a summer month on a bike/barge tour. With so many operators around, pretty hard to determine a nice route/boat/services. Decent bikes available or ship our Bike Fridays? Any advice is most appreciated.

Thanks, Marilyn and Ken

This should show up on the ride listings shortly, but just wanted to give as much notice as possible:

For folks who wanted to join the George's Arctic Rollers ride this Saturday but also wanted to participate in the Women's March On New York, I've listed a Special Early Edition

Leave Grant's Tomb at 7:00AM (yikes!), head up 9W to the Market and back, home in plenty of time to get downtown and join the throng. 

Make America Bike Again!

We have had a strong response from the NYCC community but wanted to ensure we are not missing anyone who would be interested in racing for NYCC or who wants to get faster / explore structured training.  

What is the NYCC Race and Development Team?

An outlet to allow NYCC riders to further develop their fitness, speed, and bike handling skills through structured training, group rides and instruction from other riders/racers.  An opportunity for NYCC riders to explore racing for the first time with other like-minded club members. A competitive set of both men's and women's race teams who will be competing in many of the local, regional, as well as national races with the goal of successful results.

Anyone have experience with these rides?  They have a price discount through Thursday.

Seeing articles touting the vivax assist and various merchants touting it. I'll try to keep my very opinionated thoughts out for the moment.

This is what one merchant is saying:

Has anyone done a bike scavenger hunt?  If so, could you please contact me directly.  Thanks.
