This Ride Schedule is generated automatically from entries made by volunteer Ride Leaders using My WCC. The schedule is as up to date and accurate as what the ride leaders post. If you have any questions, use My WCC to contact the Ride Leader by e-mail or call them at the number listed on the schedule. You have to log in to My WCC to contact the Ride Leader by e-mail.
Start locations are not shown here unless you have logged in. If you are wondering where to meet up, login to My WCC and come back to this page again (the start location will magically appear). If you're not a member, but want to ride with us, you can join the ride by calling the Ride Leader in advance for details - where to meet, what to expect.
Delays/Cancellations: Because bad weather (or personal emergencies) can cause short notice delays or cancellations by some leaders, we recommend that riders ALWAYS check this schedule up to an HOUR AND A HALF before ride start times. If this is impractical for a particular rider, or there's any uncertainty, contact the leader directly.
Leaders: This ride schedule is the best way to communicate with all riders in one central location. WCC now permits you to add short notice WEATHER related delays or cancellations to your ride listing, without the help of a coordinator, no later than an HOUR AND A HALF before ride start time, (but, the sooner the better). Important Note: As a courtesy to all riders, do not change the details of a ride (ie. start time, pace range, location, etc.) after the ride is posted. ONLY cancel or change start times for weather related reasons.
Leader Statistics: If you would like to know how fast a particular leader tends to go, do the following: Log in. Using the green box "View/Search Ride Schedule", just click the leader's name in the listing. Or, using the blue box "Ride Schedule", click the "stat" link to the right of the leader's name.

- To Starbuck's in Mt. Kisco
**Please note Time Change to 12pm!**For all of us folks that didn't get out on the road much this winter, here is a good easy start for spring! Not too hilly, not too long, not too fast. This ride will also be good for C riders since Barry and I will take turns sweeping. The roads are not quite ready for prime time so this ride will probably be on the lower end of the grey area between C and C+. ****Don't forget to set your clocks forward Saturday night. This ride starts at noon but might feel like 11am! Daylight Savings Time begins today***
This is a nice, easy ride to start the cycling season! Bring your helmets and a smile...
Rain or wet roads cancel ride. Check back by 11am for status.
Monday, March 15
We'll warm up a bit and climb Mt Airy road. A few rollers to attack on Colabaugh Pond road afterward, just to keep things interesting, and then back to the climb (~4 miles loop). Lather, rinse, repeat (4 times for me but feel free to cut it short). This is a hard training ride - no regroups except after the last lap. Join us for a cup of coffee after the ride. Rain cancels - I will post update by the noon Monday. Sunset is around 7pm, we'll be done by then but bring front and rear blinkies for safety.

A beautiful ride around Greenwich, based upon rides of Kathy, Ellen Katz and Judy Gordon. Mostly rolling hills and very doable so early in the season. We'll ride at a C pace and keep together. Arrive by no later than 9:30 'cause the ride is leaving promptly at 9:45. All should come with tires properly inflated, liquids, a small tool kit, a pump/cartridge and at least one spare tube. I anticipate a 13.2 mph or so pace. Wet conditions cancel ride--but not the luncheon!
