Missing Rides

Submitted by nycc-editor on Wed, 03/18/2020 - 11:12am

Hi:

All rides between March 18th and May 10th were cancelled last night.

If you had a ride submitted for May 11th or later and you don't see it, via email ([email protected]) send me a link to the ride and I will get it back to being approved.

Thanks

Covid-19 Cancellations

Submitted by nycc-editor on Tue, 03/17/2020 - 7:50pm
It will come as no surprise, that the New York Cycle Club’s Board of Directors has decided to CANCEL all Club-sponsored activities for the next eight weeks. This cancellation includes all SIGs, STSs, Club rides, laps-in-the-park training rides, social events, and Club meetings.  We will reassess the situation as needed, and adjust our approach based on current conditions on an ongoing basis.  If things get better sooner, we can resume activities. If public health still indicates a need to continue suspension of activities, we will continue to do what's in the public interest.
 
The Berkshires weekend lies outside that eight-week time frame, but should be viewed as presumptively cancelled as well.

Bike Trainer Recommendation?

Submitted by John Dutt on Tue, 03/17/2020 - 4:06pm

Spin classes are all cancelled, so looking for advice/recommendation re a trainer to use at home when I can't ride outside. Simplicity and reliability a plus.  Thanks.

Part 1 is true. Part 2 is not.

(They're really OK. Their only infection is regret.)

COVID-19 Update

Submitted by PStorey on Fri, 03/13/2020 - 10:57am

For reasons that have become pretty obvious over the last 48 hours:

Tomorrow’s A, A Classic and DSIG rides are postponed / on “pause” for the time being. I believe their participants have been so advised.

Is there a 2020 Official Member Discount Card?  Or does the 2019 one found here: https://nycc.org/sites/default/files/nycc.member.card2019.pdf good until a certain month in 2020?
