Good Afternoon, Many of us have ridden in the Arise and Ride at the farm event in the past and it is that time again. For those not familiar, the ride is a charity event that supports the Arise Farm on New Boston Road in Chittenango. They have the states largest accessible playground, accessible fishing, a high ropes course, therapeutic horseback riding and more. It is a more than worthy cause and the event is fun for the whole family. There is a 25 and a 12 mile bike loop, rated flat as can be. (the biggest ...Continue Reading

Twelve members rode an average of ten miles at the Bear Monday evening.  There was one scraped knee but besides that everyone had a fun time and are looking forward for the next time.

Peg led the newer group to mtn. biking; I led the second group who wanted to go a little faster and do some challenging things; and Doug took the fastest group who wanted it all.Thanks Tom H. ...Continue Reading

hi Everyone, Last evening was a great night for a ride.  I thought our turnout was a little light compared to our normal numbers.  We had 37 members show up and no guests.  These 37 members rode a combined distance of 615 miles. Tom Hotaling’s group rode option 3 although Tom had an unexpected flat about 3 miles into the loop and had to leave to get the flat replaced.  The positive side was that since he has been publishing the routes on the web site, everyone had route maps and made it th ...Continue Reading
