What's wrong with Putnam

Submitted by mgeller1 on Sat, 09/08/2018 - 5:35pm

I know its te second smallest county in NY State but..
I had my second Putnam ride of the year and was checking out some of the segments. The number of people who rode them this past year is way under what you see in Harriman, Bear or Storm King areas that people ride wit Metro North assistance on at least one leg.

Putnam is great riding. Did the 78 mile Putnam classic route on Friday. Do people feel otherwise?

Jerome Ave from Gun Hill to Woodlawn Station

Submitted by JFinder on Sat, 09/08/2018 - 5:05pm

Still stripped as of noon today, August 8.

Generally speaking I'd recommend taking the center lane rather than the curbside lane, since the center lane is mostly free of plumbing and it will take you past the bus stop more smoothly. 

Bike Bag Borrow Request if you have one

Submitted by carosemena on Sat, 09/08/2018 - 4:55pm
Have a new bike that I'd like to travel with but my current bike bag requires taking off the fork - with hydraulic brakes this makes it more cumbersome. Anyone out there willing to part with their bike case next weekend (Fri - Mon)? Thanks! Carlos

Nominations: There’s no such thing as a midterm election in the NYCC!

Submitted by PStorey on Sat, 09/08/2018 - 3:07pm
That’s because we have elections every year! And nominations are now open for our fifteen Director/Officer positions. Just click on the Carousel, and you will be taken to the Nomination form.
 
We urge all members to consider performing this necessary service to the Club. Besides, it’s fun! And you get a slice (or two) of pizza and a beer at each Board meeting on the first Tuesday of the month.
 
A list of the available positions appears below, along with those members of the current Board who have agreed to run again. That said, ALL seats are “open”, and we hope to offer our members the widest choice of candidates.

New and Looking for People to Ride with

Submitted by CPulvidente on Fri, 09/07/2018 - 8:40pm

Hey all, I just moved into Brooklyn a short while ago, and picked up road biking (so far I am loving it.) I have been riding all my rides alone though, and I would like to change that. I'm 22 and looking for a good group of people to ride with in Brooklyn. Please let me know if anyones interested.
