If anyone from NYCC is going, email me. I've done 3 before this year, but not since 2000. Am part of Pork Belly Ventures group for the week.

Universal Sports "Road Cycling Season Package"... NOT.
I bought the $34.99 Road Cycling Season Package which I thought was supposed to include the Tour de France. Here's an excerpt from their website:
Universal Sports has comprehensive coverage of the 2011 cycling season, including the spring classics, all three Grand Tours and the Road World Championships. With our cycling season package you can watch the following 2011 events live and on demand: Tirreno-Adriatico, Milan-San Remo, Tour of the Basque Country, Giro d'Italia, Vuelta a Espana and the Road World Championships.
(italics, bold emphasis added by me)
Bike commuting surges, led by middle-aged men
Some interesting data from an article entitled: Bicycling Renaissance in North America? An Update and Rappraisal of Cycling Trends and Policies.
Message Board Feedback (Please Comment) & July 2011 Website Update
Hello... I hope everyone had a good holiday weekend.
A small site update went live over the weekend. Here are the details...
- changed the view on /current-rides to full page width
- formatting to the ENY page & new ENY image upload
- consolidated around the (1) 'non-www' & (2) 'no trailing slash' version of the site
- more behind the scenes development stuff
- spam software installed (mollom)
- MB time formatting (see blue bar above)
I'd like to solicit suggestions for additional message board improvments. I'll kick things off with one of my own...
- Find a better WYSIWYG editor. (I typed this message in Dreamweaver)

We've got beautiful new NYCC socks and water bottles to give out to the deserving ride leaders of 2010.
Your swag can be picked up at Club meetings, including the next meeting about bike fit on July 12.
The formula:
Lead 3-5 rides = NYCC water bottle
Lead 6-11 rides = NYCC socks
Lead 12+ = NYCC ride leader jersey

has anyone done a ride to Mohonk Lake/ Mountain House and can recommend the best route from Manhattan? I'm going there for a retreat in September and was hoping I can cycle there. Any input is much appreciated!
