I'm forwarding this message from the Tri Club.Dear Members,The colder weather is arriving soon and we need to maintain and ideally improve our conditioning for the spring and summer events. A great way is to do this is by attending the spin classes at our Indoor Training Facility at Dunk and Bright. An even better method is to join our CompuTrainer sessions which provide a higher level of performance monitoring. This system tracks your power output, cadence, speed and many other factors. The data is displayed on the scr ...Continue Reading

I agree with Zeke and others that we need to see the signup sheets to assess club participation. If it's minimal, I would say no to the money; I think it's an awful lot considering most of us have other cold weather options, whether it be Zwift, spinning classes or basement videos. Molly ...Continue Reading

Please join me for the Spook Woods ride on All Hallows Eve Eve (Sunday at 10). 41 and 55 mile options available. The only thing that is not frightening is the forecast: partly cloudy and mid 60s!!! Perhaps I will come in costume…Paul VSent from Yahoo Mail for iPhone ...Continue Reading

I'm not opposed to the money per se. I think before we do though I would like to actually see the attendance sheets from last winter. I have a feeling that only a couple of OCCers used it and not regularly. I think Sam had said that numerous OCCers use it but talking to other tri club folks, they say it's not true the a lot of OCCers use it IF you don't count folks who have dual memberships.Sent from Zeke on Android Cell On Wed, Oct 26, 2022 at 8:29 PM, Doug Bray douglasbray@PROTECTED [occ2]<occ2@PROTECTED> wro ...Continue Reading

I am forwarding this message from the CNY Tri Club president, Rich O’NealIt’s getting cooler and cyclists are heading indoors to maintain fitness. One great solution is to spin at the Winter Training facility at Dunk & Bright on Salina St. Syracuse.  The CNY Triathlon club would like to strengthen our relationship with OCC and work together at WTF. We would like to see more OCC members attend and would like your members consider leading training sessions. The Indoor (Winter) Training Facility_The WTF ...Continue Reading

Thirteen riders gathered at Ye Olde Reed Webster Park - starting point of the Tuesday night Slow and Easy West rides - to head out on a rare ride with just one distance. We had one first-time OCC ride rider with us whose ride comment was “What an amazing ride!” Those of us who ride Tuesday nights are so familiar with the roads we lose sight of what a beautiful area it is and the fun of riding the undulating terrain. Three riders took advantage of the slow and easy no drop option, plus one who joins us from tim ...Continue Reading

Last Sunday’s ride out of Sullivan Park in Chittenango came on the heels of Saturday’s Beaver Lake Hurricane Winds Loop ride. This ride leader was relieved that winds at the start were forecast to be merely 7 mph and 10 mph by ride’s end. Still, due to fatigued legs from the previous day, the slow and easy group opted for a 19 mile ride to replace the scheduled 24. Our group consisted of yours truly and two others.Two riders completed 24 miles and four clocked in at 34. The long route seems to be more highly rated ...Continue Reading
