I just signed up to lead the Saturday 10:00 am ride from the former Great Northern Mall in Euclid. Fingers crossed as Saturday’s forecast is trending drier. I know that we have traditionally parked near the old Dick’s store, but please come down to park near the Morgan Road entrance to the mall. Looks to be breezy and chilly nonetheless, so come dressed for the occasion. I will have very few paper maps so please bring your own/ use GPS. Hope to see you there!Paul VSent from Yahoo Mail for iPhone ...Continue Reading

All, I am the ride leader for tomorrow morning’s Happy Valley ride. A week ago the forecast looked reasonable for mid-April but it seems each day the forecast has gotten worse. I checked this morning and it called for 95% chance of rain, winds and mid-40s. I’ve lived in Syracuse too long so I actually believe in the philosophy of “if you don’t like the weather, wait 5 minutes and it will change. Well, I did check again and it did change, but not for the better. Looks like 40 degrees now and “sleet” and “snow” are n ...Continue Reading

Hello:  My name is James Bondra. Sean Keesler and I are putting on a full brevet season this year consisting of rides starting from the Ithaca area. If you have never ridden a brevet, they are rides where you follow a route of a designated distance,  get a brevet card signed or a store receipt, or answer a question at controles/checkpoints on the course. There is a time limit for each distance. You must average at least 15 kph/9.3 mph overall,  not Strava time. The rides are not races. Most riders are ...Continue Reading
