Well I'm calling this one early.  It was an easy call to make.  70-100% chance of rain for the next 18 hours!   And the temperature will be around 57 degrees at TT start time.  Not good.So,  for anyone who was wondering:Tonight's Time Trial is CANCELLED !!!!*Next week still may be an option if the weather predictions hold out. BrianTT Directeur315-727-1458 On Monday, September 28, 2020, 12:27:43 PM EDT, Brian Goetke <goetke1@PROTECTED> wrote: As I've stated in previous ema ...Continue Reading

As I've stated in previous emails, I'll continue holding the TTs while Mother Nature cooperates and while there is interest in doing so.  Unfortunately, our beautiful Indian Summer is going to abruptly end tomorrow.  The forecast calls for light rain almost the whole day.   To add insult to injury the projected wind direction at TT start time is from the E-SW which is the most favorable direction for the TT course.   Let's see what pans out tomorrow.   If the rain ends early ...Continue Reading

Consensus of 10 riders was it was a perfect day for a beauty ride. We enjoyed the summer like weather, lake views and a bit of fall color riding around Skaneateles Lake. 7 riders rode 41 miles, 2 rode 50 and 1 rode 45.4 (turning back to 41 route). The S wind back on RT 41 was much appreciated!Only incident was piles of loose stone on the climb up Glen Haven Road. Slow going for all. One rider was unable to clip out and tipped over. My group got a funny comment from a driver as we toured past the lake homes on Glen Haven ...Continue Reading

Today was an absolute PERFECT day to be on your bike.  Seventeen others felt the same way and joined me to do the Lake Neatahwanta ride.  I’ve never actually seen the lake on this ride, but it’s there… googling it I found that half is in the city of Fulton and the other half is in the town of Granby.  Regardless, this is a nice ride on country roads in Onondaga and Oswego county.  Six people did the 33 mile route and twelve did 45.  On the longer ride, we experienced an irate pick-up truck drive ...Continue Reading

We had a decent night for the TT on the first day of Fall.  Temps  were around 63 degrees and there was a light NW breeze.  I'm opting to continue the TTs as long as the weather holds up and interest remains.  We have will have Indian Summer through early next week.  It's now a matter of whether the weather will remain dryThis week six TTers showed up to test themselves against their previous TT efforts.  We had a guest give the TT course a try - ultra-distance cyclist Gary Radford. Welcom ...Continue Reading
