It's been a
while since I've sent an update, and as I
was composing this I realized that there is
a lot going on!
Fly6 Giveaway:
We've given away two of the Fly6 camera/tail
lights provided by the Rabin Law Firm with
the last one being given away at the end of
August. Â As a reminder, if you're an OCC
member and you've ridden with the club at
least once during August, e-mail me and
you'll be entered in the final drawing for
this very cool device.
September
ride leaders needed:
Checking the
OCC Ride calendar, we currently have six
rides in September with no ride leaders.
 She everyone your organizational and
cycling prowess by signing up as a ride
leader! Â Full information on ride leader
responsibilities can be found at the link
below:
http://onondagacyclingclub.org/rides-and-tt/ride_leaders/Â Â
Fall
Century/Charity Ride:
Here's another
fall favorite to put on your calendar - our
annual Fall Century/Charity Ride! Â Besides a
great route from Carpenters Brook Fish
Hatchery that follows a scenic route through
Central NY up through Oswego and back, we
also have fully stocked rest stops and a
post ride picnic and BBQ when you're done.
 It's always been a really fun day!

Elections:
It's hard to
believe but elections for the Onondaga
Cycling Club board of directors are in
October, and in contrast to popular belief
the club doesn't run itself. Â The
obligations are only a few hours a month, so
step up to the plate and throw your hat in
to the ring. Â Contact either myself, Mike
Lyon or Colleen Farrell if you'd like to be
placed on the ballot or have any questions:
Colleen: cf_jb@PROTECTED
Mike:Â lyon689@PROTECTED
2016 Syracuse Race Weekend:
Even harder to believe is that the first
organizing meeting for the 2016 Syracuse
Race Weekend is on Sunday September 13th
(Has it been a year already!?). Â This is a
huge event and its success relies heavily on
the volunteers who make it happen. Â We have
a great core of event directors, but we're
always looking for anyone interested in
becoming more involved. Â Just e-mail me for
details on when and where we're meeting.Â
Cyclocross
weekend: Oct 24, 25.
Another great
event we have coming up is Cyclocross
weekend where the OCC and MaxPower race team
combine forces to put together a fantastic
weekend of racing. Â Details to follow, but
if you're not racing then come out to
Longbranch park in Friday October 23rd to
help us set-up. Â If you can't race or
obligations prevent you from spending a
Friday afternoon pounding stakes into the
ground, then grab your cow bell and cheer on
(heckle?) the racers. Â It's a huge amount of
fun!
WTF
Class Leaders:
You may have
started to noticed that chill in the air in
the evenings, which means that indoor
training at the CNYTriathlon Winter Training
Facility isn't far off. Â Right now
Instructors for Mondays, Wednesdays,
Thursday evening and Saturday mornings have
been lined up, but Friday evenings and
Sunday morning is still open. Â If you're
interested in leading a class, please
contact Ken Geary: president@PROTECTED Â
Fall
Spectacular:
Earlier this year the Onondaga Cycling Club
and CNYTriathlon put together the Spring
Fling to kick off the cycling season, and it
was such a success that we're currently
planning the Fall Spectacular
on Sunday, October 18th. Â Details to follow,
but expect to see a bigger better bike swap,
Time Trial Wars, vendors and technical
talks.
As always, please let me know if you have
any comments or questions:
