I am not an experienced cyclist and hills can be tough on my back.  I'm interested in joining the club but don't know if even the easiest rides would be too much for me.  May I speak to a club leader?

Would I need anything more than a small light on both the front and back to ensure that I am visable to others, or do I actually need lighting that will illuminate the road ahead?

Thanks,

Rod C.

The weather is clearing and it's not actually raining at our start point (or 6 blocks away from the start where I live) so the ride is on. 9:00 at Eleanor

It looks like the weather won't be conducive for today, so the ride is canceled for December 8.

Here's the weather call early.

Damon and Mikel are going to bag the Old Croton Aqueduct off road ride and move it to next week. It'll be too muddy tomorrow. 

I listed a Piermont ride this Saturday and because 30 people have signed up, I asked for and received volunteers to co-lead (we'll probably divide ourselves into a couple or three groups if everyone shows up).

I discovered that when one is listed as a leader, his or her name remains on the ride list, which if full, blocks others from signing on. At first I thought this was a bug, but there is a good reason: The leaders' names don't have emergency contact information; that is on the ride list. Therefore, if one is "promoting" a participant to co-leader, also add a couple new spots on the list. It beats having to write somone's name in with frozen fingers!
