Upcoming Training Rides

Hi All,

Training Ride this Saturday
I will be leading a training ride this Saturday, August 21st, leaving at 9AM, meeting at the primary meeting spot on the Upper East Side by the park (Engineer's Gate, 90th & 5th in Manhattan); please plan to arrive at 8:45AM. I'll wear a team CS jersey so you can spot me; I ride a red Specialized. If the weather looks questionable, call me Saturday morning (I checked and we should be fine) (646-369-2817). (see map in the useful links on the right).
We'll ride over to the west side (Riverside drive), up to the GWB and over to NJ where we'll meet up with anyone who wants to start in NJ - ETA 9:45am. (again see map in the useful links on the right) From there we will go North on 9W (or, if the group prefers we can make our way north through Palisades Park) until we reach Piermont, where we can rest and grab snacks at Bunbury Café; bring cash because it is cash only (http://bunburyscoffee.com/about_us.html). Then it's back to Manhattan via 9W.

Training Ride next Tuesday
Philip Davies (*106-3951, or 917 328 0522) will lead Central Park training loops on Tuesday, August 24th after work. Plan to meet at the SW corner of the Central Park loop (SW corner entrance to the park, where the entrance sidewalk meets the loop) a bit before 6:45.

A few notes:
Useful things to bring: spare tubes, bike tools, gatorade, water, sunblock, portable bike pump, snacks

If you have any questions about the difficulty level feel free to call me

All bikers welcome; no need to be a part of Team CS

If you plan to attend a ride, try to send me an email so we have an approximate headcount

Anyone interested in leading rides either weekend mornings or weekdays after work let me know

If you know of a route that might be fun for training, or if you have any other suggestions please don't hesitate to contact me
