Vince Lawler's ride was overflowing with those shut out of it; so a Part 2 has been added off the back of it, 5 - 10 minutes behind the engine. 9:35 Engineer's Gate. River Road, Sneden's Landing, The Market, turnaround, 501, Churchill or Walnut.

Last-minute ride listing.  B 16-17 to Scarsdale for lunch, about 25 miles.  Starting from the end of the #1 line (242nd & Bway), we'll take a leisurely ride over scenic hills and grab lunch at Lange's Deli in Scarsdale.  We'll follow Carol Waaser's scenic route from last year.

Starting at 10 a.m. so I can sleep in a little while, and so that lunch will come at the right time.

Ride listing will appear soon.  http://nycc.org/node/60592  If not, just show up.

Hello Everyone and Happy new year,

This is my first post and I was hoping for some direction in the purchasing my first road bike.  Just some info about me, I'm 5'6 and 180 pounds.  I'm completely entry level, my goal is some group rides and maybe some small events in the NY and hoboken area.  Trying to change my routine instead of just running every week.  I have no experience with road bike however i have been researching the past several weeks and speaking with co workers.  At this point here are my findings:

This sounds like a worthy cause if anyone is interested in the ride and raising funds.

The Statue of Civic Virtue, beloved Queens pre-ride gathering spot, has lost its statue.

I hear they left the fountain.

If anyone is interested in some CP laps A17-18 speed, please join me at 7 PM at Engineers Gate

Anyone interested in late evening laps in CP, like 3 laps from 9pm-10pm? Was out there last night, totally empty and great for a quick ride.  I head up there from downtown, could meet anywhere on the wsh or on the loop.  

Mondays and/or wednesdays are usually best...
