- 11AC+/14.52727.027.00Froze Toes Ride - "Ride Around the Block" from Coffee Ride CafeSteve Crowell
Saturday looks like mid to upper 30's and waaaay better than Sunday Snow! We roll at 11a to get the most of the warming effect that may happen.
Let's take a 'Ride Around The Block' starting at Coffee Ride Cafe. We'll go thru Nyack and over Toga to warm up then, around Rockland Lake & Congers. We stay pretty flat back through West Nyack, Baluvelt & Old Tappan. We'll return via Piermont & River Road back to Coffee Ride where we can warm-up again with cocoa!
Dress for success - don't overdress & sweat. These are winter miles so no points for speed but many points for smiles! If ppl want to cut-short or extend, there are plenty of opportunities.....
Lube your chain, pump your tires, carry spares and brush your hair!

- 9:30AB/143030.030.00Holiday Camp, You Turkey!Robert Panzera
You are a turkey. Admit it and then get on your bike with me for 3 days straight. Cold be damned! We're going to glare menacingly at our smart trainers and storm out the door, slamming it shut in disgust. We're riding outside, baby! And by baby, I mean you, ya big baby. Let's prep the body for extreme holiday food consumption. To the victor, the spoils!
Heads up. I have to leave from Coffee Ride Cafe at 9:30am sharp. My plan is to start off slow and then ease up! In other words, straight up easy winter base miles endurance. I'll especially be taking it easy on the hills. I want to survive these 3 consecutive days of riding and not be destroyed, because I have to get back to work after each ride and then have enough energy to keep up with my rambunctious kids in the evening.

Placeholder post!
This is the Panzera special so figuring he'll take the helm on scheduling.
We did 175 miles last year. 165 the year before. So let's do 200 this year.
Like before, this will be an exploration of the day, the terrain, and one's self.
People are welcome to come for part or all of the ride. We had a few different groups last year that hopped on the ride for anywhere from 65 to 125 miles of the whole enchilada.
The route will be planned to there are 2-3 loops around the Hudson River to facilitate people doing partial routes.

Come do the D2R2 gravel event.
It's a great event and the money goes to a good cause
Here's the website:
https://d2r2.franklinlandtrust.org
Campsites can be reserved so the weekend can be made of it.
I'm not sure whether I'll camp or stay with friends.
If 1 or 2 folks wanna go, we can car pool and I might have room for them in my tent or whoever I'm staying with.
There are a lot of different lengths. Do whatever works for you.
Hit me up a month or two beforehand so we can plan.
I did the 65 mile routelast year. It was a blast.
