Submitted by jegrgic on Sat, 11/17/2012 - 11:23am

Would anybody be up for a ride on thanksgiving day in the morning? 

 

Im thinking a quick ride to piermont and back (possibly nyack).  Other routes encouraged.  Probably a B16-18 ride level.

 

If enough people are interested, ill post.

 

Thanks

You could have seen this Monday (Nov. 12); you won't see it now. I just (Friday 11/16, 4:30PM) spoke with someone in the PIPC office at Alpine who said he drove the road two days ago...meaning it's clear!

 

 

Bike box to borrow or rent

Submitted by CHelfet on Fri, 11/16/2012 - 3:31pm

I'm planning to do a ride in Cape Town, South Africa (Argus Cycle Tour, http://www.cycletour.co.za/) in March 2013 and am looking to borrow or rent a sturdy bike box (preferably not cardboad) for a little over two weeks, starting in early March.  Does the NYCC have a bike box (or boxes) for members' use?  If not, suggestions are welcome!

Thanks in advance.

A sincere note of thanks to David and Tracey Williams, our November meeting's presenters, and of course, the Stephen Roche Camp, our generous meeting's sponsor, for "flying across the pond" to spend a wonderful evening with us to discuss "the joys" of climbing and descending, and to inform us of the beautifully revitalized Stephen Roche Camp, in the gorgeous "Cycling Disneyland" of Majorca, Spain.

Late posting of a moderate B ride for this Saturday 11/17

Today we'll head inland and ride north on 505. This will be a steady effort (16-17), mostly flat B ride with not many turns and no cue sheet. We'll lunch in Nyack and head south on 501. Simple and easy ride with fast, lightly trafficked suburban roads.  The group stays together/ regroups after turns and climbs. You bring your group riding skills, good cheer and whatever you need to be self-sufficient to spend a beautiful day in Bergan and Rockland. Back in NYC before 3 PM.

South in NJ after the GWB?

I always turn north (well, very occassionally, I go west). East is the water, natch. Is there any nice riding to the south?

Bike Habitat is hosting a evening with author and journalist Paul Kimmage on November 28 that should be fascinating to anyone with an interest in pro cycling.

Memorial for Danny Lieberman tonight, 14 Nov. @ 7PM

He was a unique and dynamic individual, not to mention the most unlikely person to persistently ride his bike, until he got sick. Irregardless of bike clubs, you should come, you're invited.
