Calling all 2016 volunteers--we want you to come out and party! It's time to celebrate all the great work you put into keeping the club's wheels turning last year. So please join us for a meal at IchiUmi on Tuesday, Feb. 28, from 6-9 p.m.

The food and your first drink are on the house.

Details and the sign-up form are here: https://nycc.org/volunteer/party2017

This year is going to be extra special, as we're including Escape New York volunteers in the festivities. Also, as always, we welome all other volunteers--so, if you volunteered for a club event, at a club meeting, led multiple rides, or led SIG rides, then you qualify!

Saturday Hike in Harriman - Climbing Diamond Mountain

Submitted by nymultisport on Wed, 02/01/2017 - 9:14pm
The Snow Devils are out again. This Saturday we're climbing Diamond Mountain, a relatively-easy Harriman State Park hike, with Manhattan-skyscraper views from the summit. Route features almost a mile-long walk along cascading Pine Meadow and Stony Brook streams, a rock scramble up the Cascade of Slid, plus a couple of non-technical spots where you'll use your arms as well as legs. Picnic lunch at our private--well, semi-private-- Pine Meadow Lake overlook.
 
If you've hiked/snowshoed with us in past years, or have some hiking experience as well as winter gear and clothing, we have a couple of car seats open...

Birthdaty greetings

Why do I think today is Morene Bangel's birthday?  I know why - it's because it is!  Happy Birthday Cyclegalnycc.  And for the first time, sorry, Morene is not allowed to come to the Young Members' Meetup.

Hey Morene, today is your day!  You will not hear "no" one time throughout the day - only "yes".  Today you will be correct about every thought you have, no one will disagree, you are right on.  Today you can have that extra  slice of birthday cake and on this day, it won't show up on your waistline.  Today, you are the boss of the peloton, the Queen of the hop.

Happy birthday, Cyclegalnycc.

Christy
