Sorry, forecast is just not favorable. Will try again!

Just curious.  I didn't.  (Good thing I didn't quit the day job.)

What are memmbers experiences as to the best available indoor cycling training health clubs or cycle specific studios in Manhattan, preferably downtown. I am looking for a place/gym/studio that can be joined on a monthly or drop in basis and one that has good cycling equipment not just vanilla stationary bicycles from 1980.

I have an old Performance Axiom variable resistence trainer that I'm no longer using and will give to the first person who wants it. (Email me thru my envelope icon.) The only problem with it is that the handlebar switch that controls the resistence is very stiff going from high resistence to low. (Going from low to high is no problem, and you can manually release it back to low resistence at the flywheel.) Otherwise it's in very good condition...and the price is right. It's perfect for someone who wants to try using a trainer without having to make any investment.

So this plan is for tomorrow, as of this writing. :-) I'm happy to do the ride myself, but in case anyone else is interested, reach out! Departure from the Sailors' and Soldiers' Monument at the foot of West 89th Street.

The route will stay near the river more-or-less throughout: Bicycle Route 9 into Orange County, Storm King, etc., around West Point, then the Newburgh-Beacon Bridge to get a train back from Beacon.

Based on the snowy forecast for Saturday and likely lingering icy road conditions on Sunday, the leaders have decided to cancel this ride. Please join us the following Sunday 1/29 - weather permitting!

A 16 year old friend of my nephew in the Los Angeles area received a $300 (!) ticket while cycling for failure to come to a complete stop at a stop sign. He challenges the ticket. Does he hire a lawyer? No, he does not.  Instead, he brings his fixie into the courtroom, does a trackstand for the judge, and the judge tosses the ticket.

NYCC.org has made some great strides over the last year.  The efforts have been focused on keeping the site from crashing and getting the ride system right (among a few other things).  We've also focused on updating content about events and club goings-on.

It's time to we take a step back and really evaluate the site's information architecture - which leads me to my plea...  

If you have professional experience as an Information Architect, we need you.  Please contact me if you're interested in tackling this project for the betterment of the NYCC community.

Thanks for reading!

Will I need a Metro South pass to get back?
