We had 30 rides scheduled for the month of May. Unfortunately, this has been a very wet spring, which caused 11 of those rides to either have no riders, or just a handful. Too many Saturdays fell victim to rain.The Slow 'n Easy West rides on Tuesday nights continue to be the most popular with 47 riders on 5/16 and 50 riders the following week. Total club miles ridden for the month was 11,500, bringing the season total to 23,000.Here is the top 10 riders by distance. Name Rides Miles Barnell, Dale 30 1098 Jeavons, ...Continue Reading

19 Riders, over 600 miles of riding, and no rain ( we got lucky). 2 flats (one was mine).  1 had to bow out due to mechanicals. A stiff pace... Good weather, good ride, good workout. John Fornack (and Don Butler)--send me over your milege or just send it straight to Don Butler at dab31415+occ@PROTECTED and copy me so I know you are covered. Thanks all!

With much chagrin I have decided to cancel the Time Trial tonight*.   The TT course appears to be ground zero for a red cell at  6:00-6:30.    It is already raining there now.  The roads are already wet and a severe T-storm is due to hit the course.   We need to consider the safety of all involved.  If it is raining, I will not be able to sweep the course and I won't put up the signage for fear of violent wind damaging them.   It's not a good situation.  So, for the firs ...Continue Reading

Hi Everyone, I don’t have my meteorologist hat on, but after looking at the Accuweather radar,  I am not getting a warm feeling about tonight *_at all_*.  I spoke with Mike and we are both concerned about the heavy storms they are predicting along with a lot of lightning.  Getting caught in lightning is one thing but going out in it is a little crazy.    I spoke with Mark in Baldwinsville and they are getting hammered there with wind, rain and lightning.  So, by mutual agreement, ...Continue Reading
