Hi,

I'll be visiting NYC in June from South Africa. I'm in the middle of a training program for one of the longest mountain bike races in the world. I cannot afford to loose 2 weeks of training. :)

I need to ride some 50-60 miles 18th and 50-60 miles 19th of June.

I have 2 problems and would love some suggestion.

1. I do not have a mountain bike there. Is there places to hire some?

2. Where would I do these distances preferably not on busy public roads...

Regards,

Andre

Looking to list an A18/19 Bash Bish ride for Sunday 5/29 but would like an experienced co-leader. This will be my first time leading and riding this route. Very excited as it looks amazing. 

Please let me know if you are interested. Thank you!

Hi all -

Does anyone know of a shop that rents cyclocross bikes?  I'm looking to do the D2R2 ride this summer and my 23c's aren't going to cut it.  I know NYC Velo did at one point, but I'm hoping to find others.

Thanks!

It will definitely be nice to get the people out of the bicycle lanes.

Betsy posted this to the NYCC FB page. I go there just about never. Not that I would have known I had missed it if I had, but, even so, it would have been shattering to miss it. And it will be shattering in the same way if you do. (As you prepare to click on this link, you might want to have a hankie at hand.)

Just dropped earned swag off at bike shops. Go get your stuff, you deserve it! Thank you for volunteering!

Would you like a new Jamis carbon bike? All you have to do is come to the C SIG Graduation at Connolly's, 121 W. 45th St. (3rd fl.) (bet. 6th Ave. & B'way) (6:00 - 9:00PM) on May24th, cheer for the new C SIG graduates, of course, and hold the winning raffle ticket. Jamis Bicycles and Echelon Cycles, our meeting's sponsors, have donated a new carbon bike as our featured raffle rpize. In addition, every C-SIG graduate and C SIG ride leader will be given a free pair of Jamis bike shorts. Also, 6 FREE entries to Gran Fondo NJ, will be raffled off.

You might want to take a light rain jacket for possible late day showers.

I've been trying to import the GPS route from a ride in the Ride Library to my new Garmin 1000, but I'm not having any luck.

If anyone can explain the easiest way to do this, I would really appreciate it.  I called Garmin customer support this morning but they weren't all that helpful.

Thank you in advance!
