[occ2] FW: Questions From A New Member

June 4th 2016 MST

Thank you to all who offered advice – it was most appreciated – I ended up riding a couple of different road bikes – the CAAD8, Allez and the Diverge and I ended up settling on the Specialized Diverge A1 – I liked the way it felt and didn’t mind the 30mm tires – I did ride the Erie Canal trail this evening in Dewitt and once I left the paved area into the crushed gravel I could see the Diverge being a little easier to ride on that surface… The decision was made a little easier because I do also have an older Canno ...Continue Reading

There are no lack of local cycling related events to participate in, both competitive and non-competitive.  One great resource is BikeReg, where you'll also find the registration page for the OCC IronMan 70.3 WarmUp. There are plenty of charitable events such as the Ride and Run for the Rescue, the Poi ...Continue Reading

Hi Matt! Welcome!Be sure to try lots of bikes before buying! You never know what’s going to be the “perfect” bike for you. I prefer older bikes as they’re WAY less expensive and fun to work on myself (and unless I lose about 50 lbs, the bike isn’t going to be the deciding factor on my performance).There are plenty of charity rides around CNY, and OCC usually has a team to ride with. June 12 is the Tour de Cure CNY, that has distances ranging from about 10 miles to the 62- and 100-mile routes that go around Oneida Lake. ...Continue Reading

[occ2] Questions From A New Member

June 3rd 2016 MST

Hey all,   I registered for the club this week as I just started riding a few weeks ago (as a cross training option for running – and I found I like riding better J ). I am shopping for a road bike now – I really liked the Specialized Diverge I rode yesterday (not a true road bike but close) and will go out to B’ville today to ride a Cannondale (CAAD8 or Syanpse). I also plan to ride the Specialized Allez as well…   When I started running, I signed up for a couple of 5K races and started training for them. I ...Continue Reading
