Van Cortlandt bathrooms at Broadway and 242 are now OPEN after 3 year closure.

Yes, it's a tad early to think about July 4th weekend, but it will come upon us faster than you think!  If you plan on attending the weekend with someone who doesn't ride, you know someone who would be willing to drive the luggage van up to WP on July 4th (Thursday) and back to the city on the 6th (Saturday), please contact me through email.  You will be paid handsomely in thanks and kudos! (And a possible stipend as well)

Hey everybody, my name is Deric, my A-SIG Classic helmet label is Chico. I am new to the NYCC, and have really enjoyed meeting you folks, and riding with the SIG. After the first ride on Sunday I was headed home via Riverside Drive, and got doored. I went down hard, and have multiple really unpleasant injuries. Got lucky in that all x-rays were negative, but not so lucky in that the carbon of my down tube fractured. My frame is dead. I am most likely not going to be ready to ride this Saturday, but am really hoping to be able to make the ride on the 16th. If anybody has a bike that they would be so gracious to let me use in the event that I am able to ride, I would appreciate it immensely. I am 5'7", and would best fit a 52 or 54, although I could make due with anything close.

I know the FOBOs probably think the weather is balmy, but the slower crowd can't bear the thought of riding with a wind chill of 19 and winds at 14 MPH, so the 16s (Jerry Ross and Linda Wintner) are canceling.

Let's see what Thursday brings.

Hi Everyone,

Nelson Vails will be in town to shoot his documentary in Central Park and Harlem, etc ... on Saturday March 9 during the day. I believe he might be inviting cyclists to ride (will post if yes and with details).

Most probably know that Toga Bike Shop is his original team, where he started. Toga is hosting a Meet and Greet from 6-9pm on Saturday evening. Details are below. It's FREE. There will be a mixutre of social and racing cyclists. Cyclists of all levels and interests are welcome along with friends (non-cyclists as well) ... anyone who would like to meet and chat.

It should be interesting to bump into those who you can only ID by helmet and/or bike :)

See you there!
