Hi everyone,

I’m a cyclist from Finland, spending this week in NYC. I rented a road bike and would love to ride to Bear Mountain and back. Since I don’t know the area or routes, it would be nice to join an organized ride, or at least someone who knows the routes. I’m a midpack rider, can ride in paceline and can hold 20 mph on flats for longer trips.

Anyone planning to go on this weekend (21-22 Oct) ?

With nominations having closed at our October meeting and Michelle Gordon having withdrawn, this year's ballot will show the following candidates:

As of 2:42AM Saturday, the day of the ride, the sign-ups are down to 80 with 14 leaders. There's another ride listed that starts at the same place that has 17 riders plus 3 leaders. However, inasmuch as 2 of those 3 leaders also listed themselves among the 14 leaders of that larger ride, and this other ride has a different start time, a different route and, by description, wouldn't seem to integrate with the other two clubs, which I gather is the point of the overall ride, the NYCC-ABC total is likely 92. Still, adding 92 to all the people coming from the Westchester Club headed across the bridge at the same time, plus miscellaneous others going on other rides should make for a tie-up on the bridge.

Hi:

I'm looking for a few people that would like to help me scout a "C" ride this weekend, with the goal of posting the ride for either Sunday, October 29th or Saturday, Nov 4th. Your more than welcome to co-lead the ride with me when it is posted.

I've picked 3 rides form the library that seem interesting. All the rides I picked are in Westchester. The rides are:

Hi all,

Apologies if this has been covered earlier (a quick search on my part didn't turn up anything relevant). I'm wondering what the rules are in the following situation.

1. There is a bike lane on a road and a cyclist and vehicle are moving along in the same direction.
2. The vehicle then wants to turn left at an intersection (across the cycling lane).
3. The cyclist wants to go straight ahead.
4. The light is currently green.

Does the vehicle need to give way to the cyclist before crossing into the cyclist's lane?

If you've ridden either, I'd appreciate hearing what you thought of it.

Thanks.

Bill

Due to weather. This ride will be rescheduled for next year. 

Because of the weather forecast, the B15 and B17 are CANCELLED, and are being rescheduled to Sunday, October 15.

The rider list is being transferred to Sunday. IF YOU CAN'T MAKE IT ON SUNDAY, PLEASE WITHDRAW FROM THE RIDE.

The ride listings stay the same. Same trains as on Saturday.
