Hi, I need an assisant/co-leader for Saturday to Bear Mountain/Cold Spring. Must be at least a B-SIG grad who has done the ride at least once, preferably more than once, but definitely at least once. Email me at couldbeworse at yahoo dot com with the subject line "hammerfest".

Hi there, newcomers, and seasoned vets. Over the last few rides I have led, there have been numerous participants who do not have emergency contacts listed in their NYCC accounts. This costs everyone time at the beginning of the ride, and could compromise your receiving the medical care you need. So please get your emergency contact information on file!

Hey all.  I'm a long time cyclist, but entering the world of road biking.  Spent years on a MTB, and when moving to the city a few years ago, and having only room for one bike, I decided to compromise and get what is essentially a fairly quick flat bar road bike with 32C tires (what they now call an "urban" or "city"bike).  While its great for the city and I do get good exercise with it, I am feeling that its too heavy and tiresome (on hands) to seriously get into road cycling, group  and long (50k plus) rides.  So, I decided its time to get a "real" road bike.  I have good bike understanding -- can do  adjustments, tuning, cable/chain changes, cassette changes, etc -- and know a bit about road bikes, their gruppo leve

I got an email at 7pm from the Port Authority notification service saying that the bridge path was closed due to Police activity.

The GWB Sidewalk is closed due to Police activity for 30 minutes.

Let's seize the days before the real Cold hits! http://nycc.org/ride-detail/54355

Wed morning's "Sunrise Laps" ride looks seriously in doubt - the weather forecast calls for a 98% chance of rain at start time.  Bah, humbug.  Look out your window at 5:30 AM, if it's raining or the roads are wet, the ride's cancelled. 

Ride is on

Seriously, folks-  One of you will certainly run into or see this crew in CP and hopefully, someon will give an eyewitness report.  Better yet, it would be funny and pretty cool to stalk....um...follow... these Google Guys and get filmed so you'd be captured on Google Maps for Central Park for all eternity!   WWLD.  What would Lance do?!  I read about it on the Inter-web!
