For those of you that looked out your window this morning and saw wet roads and thought "Nah,  I'm not riding today. I don't feel like getting wet" or something to that effect, well, you missed a glorious morning for a ride.  Yes, there was sporadic spray from the roads for the first 30 minutes or so. But, the roads were soon bone dry.  The temps were in the high 60s, the breeze was light and the humidity was non-existent.  The 35/45 mile route was an interesting mix of serene roads wi ...Continue Reading

I have been monitoring the Chittenango weather patterns from the OCC Weather Desk utilizing our Eye In The Sky technology.   We put your membership dues to good use!   Up to this point it appears that the heavy rain has miraculously avoided the TT course.  As if there is a force field around the course (technology I'm not at liberty to reveal at this time).   The forecast is for sprinkles to touch the NW part of the course around 5:15- 5:45.    The rest of the course is in t ...Continue Reading
