As predicted the weather held up just fine as Mother Nature decided to not attempt to do battle with the OCC Weather Control System (patent pending).   The temps were around 83 degrees, the humidity > 70%  and a 9mph NW provided a challenge for the first 3-5 miles.Eleven TTers rolled to the line to test themselves in their Race of Truth.   We had one newby, Welcome Eston!  and a guest -  regular TTer Dick Rybinski's son,  Welcome Matt !     The Fastest Men's Time ...Continue Reading

While the CNY area is seeing its share of heavy rain, we should be in the clear by 300pm.    There is some precipitation that is due to creep in from the south up to Rt 80 around 5:15pm.   I'll keep an eye that to make sure it doesn't somehow leap over Mount Pompey and rush to the north towards the TT course.  I think the 25 mile buffer should be adequate.Barring that unlikely scenario, I'm planning on holding the TT tonight.BrianTT Directeur315-727-1458 On Tuesday, July 6, 2021, 11:12:48 AM ...Continue Reading

I hope all had a great July 4th weekend!     Sunday and Monday were beautiful days to be outside.   It was certainly in contrast with what the poor riders of the TdF had to contend with.  That was brutal!  So cold and wet that many were losing feeling in their fingers.   Unfortunately, it appears that the race has boiled down to a race for the 2nd and 3rd spots on the podium.   Although, the green jersey battle may be heating up and add some drama.   One t ...Continue Reading

I had planned on leading a 14 - 15 mile ride tonight, but both our vehicles are off the road at the moment. I wanted to trade that van in back in the fall, but my brother talked me out of it, and now you can’t buy a vehicle. I’m thinking if I plan everything right, I might be able ride to the park and make it on time, but I can’t ride home. My partner in crime, Diana, is out with an injury. So maybe either a cycling angel can give me a lift this week (I live near Paciorek orthodontist and/or the high school, happy ...Continue Reading

 Well there are once again risks of popup thunder storms but what the heck, let’s plan a ride anyway.  My group will be doing the Peru Road-Whiting option tonight, 22 miles. Not sure about other options but if there are people that want to ride the canal or do a shorter road ride and there is no one to lead, I will be glad to lead one those options and get someone to lead my usual group.  Tom’s group will be doing a new route tonight 29 miles with 1100 feet of elevation.  NO GPS so you will have to f ...Continue Reading
