A19 Ride Ride 11/Garmin Issue

Submitted by vinlaw on Mon, 05/14/2012 - 10:56am

I can't upload my ride from Saturday. I just get a constant uploading message and nothing happens but I was able to upload Sunday's recovery ride with out a problem. It was my first ever 100 mile day. I'd hate to lose it. Any ideas?

Cheers.

Vincent.

Putnam County Trail

Submitted by nevets7 on Mon, 05/14/2012 - 8:12am

A really nice ride along Putnam County Trail from South East through Mahopac down to Yorktown and beyond. There is a wonderful Farmers Market in Mahopac on Sunday's less than a minute ride on the path up to Route 6 as you cross Croton Falls Road...scones. smoothies, fresh produce and fruit, spices...actually too much to carry back on bike.

Hello,

My boyfriend and I would love to take part in this epic weekend however, our budget cannot afford 2-3 nights of lodging so we wanted to see if anyone (or another couple) might be interested in sharing a room with 2 beds.

Gran Fondo registration "unofficial transfer"?

The deadline for legitimately transferring one's Gran Fondo registration passed a month ago. I'm wondering if anyone can tell me if they check photo ID's or something, so that if I was to try to sell it now, if the buyer would be able to succesfully fly under the radar.

Submitted by RFranco on Sun, 05/13/2012 - 5:49pm

Memorial Day weekend in the Berkshires is less than 2 weeks away.  It is going to be another wonderful weekend of cycling in the Berkshire hills.  If you haven't already, sign up for the Sunday night dinner on May 27.  It is held at the Egremont Country Club and costs $45 per person.  The evening begins with a cocktail hour with hor dourves (drinks not included), followed by a delicious buffet dinner and dessert.  And hopefully you saved some energy for dancing.  Music will be spun by our very own DJ Tomcycle.
