Monday Morning C Ride in Central Park: Cancelled for Tomorrow

Submitted by JOlson on Sun, 01/06/2013 - 7:27pm

Unfortunately, I have to cancel my Monday Morning C Ride in Central Park for tomorrow for family reasons.

I expect to reschedule the ride soon and encourage all interested members to join us. I think of this ride as a sort of a "recovery ride" from both more strenuous weekend rides and from Jerry Ross's/Linda Wintner's Tuesday Thursday Morning Laps rides.

Saw the above for sale, but never heard heard of a cycling neck brace before. What is it for, and how does it work? Anyone familiar?

If the weather is bad at 6am, expect another post here. We expect to ride.

late listing for Sunday: Wykagl lunch

Submitted by DHudes on Thu, 01/03/2013 - 2:16am

My schedule for this Sunday was changed this morning. The forecast is for a high of 41F and no rain/snow and I can't pass that up so join me for a B-17+ ride of about 47 miles and about 2000 feet of climbing on a ride to New Rochelle for lunch at Grill Point, a tasty glatt kosher restaraunt.
