Musings of an ex-President about. . . . .
So, our Treasurer appears to have been on vacation for some time. . .
I not realize our financial results have not been posted. When I get back from vacation, I will make sure it`s done. It would have been better jus didt to email me.
Btw the board gets year to date p/l and the balance sheet just before every meeting.

but the Treasurer does not seem it fit to insure that these statements are posted on the Message Board.
and our Secretary has misplaced his pencil and/or computer. . .
and our President has nothing to say about these matters. . .

Transport to Bear Mountain Classic
Hello,
I'm Diego, I'm new to the US and just became a member of the NYCC and got my nice and shiny USA Racing Lisence.
I'm repeating the post since for some reason when I try to see it it only shows a blue page.
I will be moving to the US (Brooklyn) by end of April, I'm very interested in going to the Bear Mountain Classic in May 11th. However, I don't know how to get there. I won't be buying a car anytime soon. Does anybody now any king of transport service from Manhattan or Brooklyn to where the race takes place?
Thanks!
Ride to Bear Mountain Classic
Hello,
I'm Diego and will be moving to NY in two weeks. Very excited about that. I'm already a member of the NYCC and now and also got a shiny cat 5 license for racing.
I'm interested in going to the CRCA Jamison Bear Mountain Classic. I'm just worried about how to get there. I doubt that I will get a car right at my arrival and I don't know anybody yet to get a ride. Does anyone know if there is a company or something that provides transport services from Manhattan or Brooklyn to the race and back?
Thanks!

"Independent" bike mechanic / the etiquette of buying components online
Hi there,
I want to upgrade some components on my bike, but the price quoted by the store are so much higher than what I'm seeing online. So two questions:
Is there such a thing as an "independent" bike mechanic, that I could hire to do the installing for me? Any recommendations?
And what is the etiquette of buying the components online and bringing them to your local shop to have them installed? Is that frowned upon?
Thanks!

Looks like it won't be ready until the second half of the year, maybe even as late as September (or later):
