Hello all,

Long-time lurker; first-time poster.

I was wondering if there's been any update on last year's ride leader jersey promotion. I think the offer was that anyone who led at least 4 rides after graduating a 2017 SIG by a certain deadline was eligible for a free NYCC ride leader jersey. I might have missed it but didn't notice anything on the website about how to follow up on this.

Thanks for any info!

Sharing some news - - Alan had a planned heart procedure this morning (3/21) to address an unexpected medical development.

He's home and fine so far, of course chafing at the bit about relative inactivity and some athletic restrictions.

Happily, he's been told he can start riding in a week.

Snow.  Wind.  Cold.

I hope to see you next week.

If you are in the Hudson area during the week check this out.

My son runs it.

On the GWB ramp, if a cyclist is approaching the hairpin turn going up and another is approaching it going down, who has the right of way?  Is there a standard rule?

I will be traveling in Italy between May & June and am looking for a referral to a tour operator that I can connect with in advance to arrange for some riding in and around Florence.  Not necessarily looking for sightseeing but more for a good half day/full day ride.  Let me know if the webpage is a better source for this referal.  Thanks in advance

Does anyone know about Argon and BMC bikes?

Thanks

I rode River Rd. today. Still a lot of trees across road, boulders and assorted other debris. You can get thru but you will need to dismount a few times and be very cautious - definitely not something to do in poor light.
