An informal evening of food and fun where we can hear about some of the bike touring adventures that our club members and supporters have experienced over the past cycling season, and dream about new adventures for 2010. We have begun planning for the 2010 season with new week-long routes, weekend trips, and other cycling [...]

It was pretty late Sunday morning when Steve Powell called about doing a ride. We’ve both had quite a few miles of rail trails and canal paths and bike tracks, but Steve wanted a day off the highways and proposed that we drive down to the Pine Creek rail trail in Pennsylvania. He had learned [...] This past weekend found Ludlow, Vermont, invaded by a gang of bicyclists from the Finger Lakes. There was a total of 19 of us, most staying in the hostel in the heart of town. Always a bit of a gamble this time of year, the weather gave us better than an even break — no [...] Columbus Day weekend is traditionally the height of fall color in New England and we’re taking the three days for a cycling getaway in Ludlow, Vermont (about five and a half hours from Ithaca). We’ll be staying at the Trojan Horse Hostel, a place used by FLCC spring trips in the past. It’s located in [...] We’ve had some conflicts with scheduling this tour on Labor Day and Columbus Day weekends, so we’re planning for the weekend of Oct. 2-4.

Participating cyclists were Steve Grossman, Alexey Loginov, Scott Smitth, and Andrejs Ozolins; we had the [...] When you arrive in Ottawa Friday night, or early on Saturday morning, if you haven’t acquired food and need to get a bite in a hurry, here are some of the options for finding food and exploring.

Dorm cost *Reduced* Visit MEC Meals Volunteer Needed With less than a month before our May 22-25 Memorial Day Getaway in Ottawa, the final arrangements are being made for a really fun weekend. 19 people [...] Rides will be held at Hammond Hill, beginning Tuesday evenings in May as trail conditions permit (riding on soft, wet trails = damaged trails). Meet at the large parking lot on Hammond Hill Road. Rides will initially begin at 5:30pm and then at 6pm as the season and days progress. Check the calendar for the [...] Steve Powell has been up most of the long nights in Alaska and inevitably turned his mind to summer bike trips. With the miracle of Skype, we managed to work out a schedule for this summer’s Touring Group. We’ve set dates for the Memorial Day Getaway, two long (7-10 day) tours, two weekend tours, and [...] |
