Another day without rain, go figure. 37 members and 1 guest rode 700 miles.  No problems as far as I know.  But there was an unusual event.  No one touched the cookies or zucchini bread until I got back and even then no cookies were consumed.  Were these pod people that came last night??? Only a couple more Tuesday rides left. Mike ...Continue Reading

I'm ride leader today.  There's a decent chance the weather will clear. Ride start is at Carpenter's Brook Fish Hatchery.  *You may want to avoid Route 690/695 west due to the NYS Fair.  I missed last weeks Wed ride as traffic was backed up between the Fairgrounds exit and the Geddes St. exit. * Days are much shorter now, sunset is at 7:47 p.m. Thanks.

The weather is looking great for Tuesday evening!   And we may back on the old course!  I've been told (thanks Ken!)  that Chestnut Ridge has been lined and swept.  I'll just have to make sure the turn onto Marsh Mill is clean enough for me to broom sweep.A couple of days ago the forecast called for our treasured SE wind... but now, it is supposed to be out of the South. That is still better than our usual pattern of NW breeze.  See ya at the start!BrianTT Directeur315-727-1458 ...Continue Reading

12 riders showed for the 0800 start w/temps in the low 50's. 2 of them who rode to the ride in shorts and short sleeve jerseys but no vest, jacket or full fingered gloves, coming down a large, steep hill @ they're ride start. Guess they wanted to "warm up". 1 rider arrived 1/2hr late. 5 riders did the 32 option, 5 riders doing the 50mi route, and 3 a bit less, to bypass the Song MTN climb. Roads were generally in good shape, with the exception of the 5mile climb up Willowdale. No mechanicals or incidents ...Continue Reading
