The weather forecast is 26 degrees at 6:00 AM on March 6. That is too cold for me, so I am cancelling that ride. See you all on Thursday the 8th.

Anyone else going this year?  Anyone done the ride in the past--advice welcome--particularly would like opinions on if you stayed in hotels or did the Sherpa camping? Thanks!

Will be in NY for a couple of days this week... Does anyone know of a place that rents good road bikes in NYC?

Thanks!

C SIG classification is ON today.  Meet at the designated spot.

The NYCC SIGs were created by Christy Guzzetta and Jody Sayler sometime around the neolithic or bronze ages, I think more than 25 years ago. At that time the acronym SIG (Special Interest Group) was not nearly so common, so widely used as it is today. I think at the time it was pretty much confined to computer groups. Today there are SIGs all over the landscape, and maybe they still even connote computer something-or-other on first blush before another moment's thought corrects the first impression.

Anyone have any recommended rides starting downtown Philadelphia? 30-35 miles would be ideal.

will be spending a weekend there in a few weeks with the family and hoping to get out for a couple of hours in the mornings.

thanks!

This just in from League of American Bicyclists.....a very important victory for safe cycling and walking routes on a community level.

The only reason this amendment to the transport bill was accepted was due to cyclists like us, here at NYCC, lobbying, emailing intensely for it.

From LAB:

The C SIG classification ride has been postponed today.  The weather is looking much better for tomorrow, so we'll meet tomorrow at the designated time and place.
