Girona

Submitted by mgeller1 on Sun, 03/20/2016 - 9:01pm

To those that are looking for a new cycling destinatination, I wanted to share my great experience with Paul Kneppers of Campo Bicicletta of Girona Spain.  Girona is fast becoming a key training ground competing with Mallorca. I'm guessing its not too known as I just did their signature ride, Rocacorba(6.1 miles @ 7% topping at 15%) and notice i was the sole nycc member climbing it according to Strava. it's a great location for cycling and in many ways is superior to Mallorca altough Mallorca does have its merits as well.  Also Girona has La Fabrica which is an ususual coffee house in that every cyclist seems to start his or her ride from La Fabrice which also means you'll be starting your rides with the pros. If anyone wants more information please pm me.

Hi

A few times Ive gone to the park only to find it used by various charity events or runs etc.

Does anyone have a listing/ website/phone number i can check out in the future to find out about the status of the park, on any particular day?

(Reason the c sigs moved the starting point this year too away from the boathouse)

Thank you for any help and advice

The NYCC Member Advocacy Initiative Thread

Submitted by CWood on Sat, 03/19/2016 - 9:17am

Mucow asked:

"So if the NYCC is no longer having people speak on the club's behalf on things like the TZB bike/ped paths, does anyone know what organizations I should be joining / donating to to make sure things like this are handled well? TA typically doesn't cover stuff outside the immediate city."

Please share your ideas here for what we can do. 

Doesn't have to be immediate or completely thought out. Sometimes ideas have to germinate for awhile. Post when you're ready.
