Chairman Degnan, Commissioners.

Please join Gary Katz, Diane Goodwin and Howard Hall -- proud members of NYCC and 5BBC -- for Brooklyn's Backbone on Sunday 11/23/2014 at 9 AM at Grand Army Plaza, Brooklyn.

This 30 mile ride is listed on 5BBC as advanced moderate, roughly the equivalent of B16 on the NYCC scale. To learn more or to sign-up, go to https://www.5bbc.org/rides-events/day-rides/2014/11/brooklyns-backbone

Neile Weissman, Linda Wintner and I represented the NYCC at a meeting of the Central Park Conservancy Recreational Roundtable this evening.  (Several other NYCC members were also there representing other organizations.)  Unfortunately, the Department of Transportation was unable to send a representative so many questions regarding changes to the park drives remain unanswered.

What we do know is as follows:

1. The speed limit will go down from 25mph to 20mph on the park drives.  We do not know when this will be implemented.  The NYPD will be concentrating their enforcement in areas where congestion is greatest and where there have been collisions.

I’ve arranged for Cycling Camp of San Diego (CCSD --- www.ccsd.com) to offer a  5 day camp specially tailored for NYCCer’s the last week in February. We’d need a minimum of 12 folks to sign up to make it work.

This just in, from NYC Park Advocates:

I'm thrilled to see it. Long overdue.

Hello - I just joined NYCC and look forward to rides with you.  

At the moment, I'm looking for a great organization that organizes bike tours.  I'd like to go on a one-week trip in late December and am having trouble finding anything.  Any suggestions out there?

Thanks
Brie

What's your single best tip for staying comfortable while riding in cold weather? (Don't bother with "ride your trainer indoors" as I am aware of that option.) This is for an article I'm writing for Examiner.com
