New Website Feature: Auto-renew Membership
Hello all,
Want to make sure you don't miss one minute of our incredible club benefits? Great news! We introduced auto-renew capabilities a few months back for new members. We've recently turned it on for existing members. You can follow the directions below to switch your membership to an auto-renew plan.

SIG question
With the exception of the twelve (12) weeks from the first Saturday in March until the weekend before Memorial Day, I talk about the SIGs more often than a politician makes promises. For some reason, people I haven't ridden with before keep showing up on rides that I lead (talk about foolhardiness), or other rides that I sign up for. Or even worse, they stand next to me at the bar during a club meeting for more than 6.7 seconds. In any of these cases, I am most likely in full SIG-marketing mode... "Did you take a SIG?"... "If so, who'd you ride with?"... "Thinking of taking a SIG next spring?"... etc., etc... I can only imagine how annoying it is...
From CP conservancy, northern loop car-free thru 9/2
The NYC Department of Transportation has announced that beginning this Friday, June 27th, the northern loop of the Central Park Drive, north of 72nd St., will be car-free (public use)until Sept. 2nd.
The right-hand lane will remain a dedicated vehicle lane for service, enforcement, emergency and other authorized vehicles. We would appreciate your cooperation in our efforts to keep the vehicle lane free of cyclists, skaters, pedestrians, and runners.
The Best Bike Tour in the World?

If you have ever thought about cycling the Blue Ridge Parkway . . . .
I just completed a 10-Day tour (travel day, 4 days cycling, rest day, 3 more cycling days, travel day) of the BRP this past Sunday. I toured with Paul Wood of Black Bear Adventures. Paul is a native North Carolinian, a 3-time NC State Road Cycling Champion, a fierce athlete/cyclist with an unabiding passion for the BRP, and an all-around "Good 'ole boy". It was perhaps the finest cycling I have ever done, and I've cycled lotsa places.
How is 9D from Cold Spring north to Beacon?
Is it similar to southbound (i.e., narrow, traffic, sometimes no shoulders, bad pavement)?
