Due to the expected rain i moved the ride to the early afternoon. I also modified the route to somewhat more familiar roads. If the revised ride no longer works for signed up riders please modfiy your signup.
**********************************
I have a limited window to ride on Sunday so posting a shorter ride. I also have a guest visiting from London, Chris Froome's older brother (who is not a professional rider). At first i thought we'd ride just the two of us but he said he'd be happy to ride with our local crew so posting this and hope some folks join us. I picked a route that hopefully highlights some of our beautiful roads including riding along Kensico reservoir (which we don't do very often).
As this is a short ride there's no planned stop.
- 9AC/132222.222.20Sunday Java JauntCancelled For WeatherCancelled For Weather
A relaxing short ride with a few hills and great reservoir views, on a Sunday morning. What's not to like?
Note the starting location / meeting point is JV Bagels in the Somerstown Shopping Center. Someone noted that since ownership change, we were still leaving from Bobos, but few people would go in for refreshments. And another person highly recommended JV Bagels. It's a Sunday morning, and who doesn't like a good bagel???
This week we will be riding many familiar roads through Somers and head up to pass Hayfields (optional pit stop), and then return by going around Titicus Reservior.
Faster riders are welcome to ride ahead and reserve seats for the rest of us ;-)
Expect to finish the ride by 11 am, if not earlier, so you have most of the day for other activities.
Please arrive by 8:45 so we can promptly leave at 9.
Meet at JV Bagels in the Somerstown Shopping Center. Let's be considerate by trying to avoid parking in front of shops that are open as to not antagonize the owners and customers.

This could be a GREAT day to ride with clear skies and cool temps. Join us on one of Marcel's picks down to OG for bagels and back. PLEASE ARRIVE 15 minutes early with the route loaded, your bike ready to roll with the stuff you need. We will STAY AS A GROUP to be safe. The posted speed is 12.8, because of the hills, or whatever the group dictates. I look forwatd to you joining us on this adventure.

- 9AC/11.55150.550.50Slow Climber. Take It Easy. Part IIThomas Nee
Hum it. The Foghat song Slow Ride, Take it Easy.
Ok. False advertising. There's nothing easy on this route. 15-20% grades galore. If you don't know what that means, then this isn't the ride for you. 11.5mph might be an over estimate given the amount of steeps on this route.
Indian Hill, Middle Patent, Hickory Kingdom, Johns, Cliffdale, Barnes, Lake, Bear Ridge, Whipporwhill 2x, Byram Hill/Oregon. And if that's not enough, we get to climb up Baldwin to go back to the parking lot.
Not a lot of water stop options. So be ready to have fluid and fuel for the entire 50 miles. Maybe we can find something, but unclear.
Might be 95-100 feet per mile on the Garmin as RidewithGPS always grossly underestimates climbing totals.

Are you new to Westchester Cycle Club? This ride is for you. We will provide an introduction to safe riding and expected practices on WCC group rides, then break into groups by level of speed and experience. You can expect to learn how WCC rides work and which level ride you might choose for your first regular club ride.
Anyone who can ride a few miles on their bike is welcome--depending on the number of ride leaders, we'll break up into groups at different distances, so you do not necessarily have to ride 15 miles. Please come with a bicycle in reasonably good repair with air in the tires, a helmet (required), a water bottle, and comfortable clothes for riding. Please arrive at least 15 minutes early to gear up and sign in. We will meet in lot "West 1" on the SUNY Purchase College campus. Look for the cluster of cars with bicycles.
Advanced Signup is mandatory.

Although the ride is free and open to everyone, they hope you'll raise or contribute money to benefit the Harlem Valley Rail Trail. Your contributions will help support, maintain and extend this beautiful public trail from Copake and Hillsdale, NY northward.
The Roe Jan area features quiet country roads dotted with idyllic views of farms and mountains. Comprising the towns of southeastern Columbia County, NY, it's a beautiful rural setting nestled between the Taconic Mountains and the Hudson River. Just two hours north of New York City and two & one-half hours west of Boston, this area offers some of the best cycling anywhere.
All rides begin and end in Copake Memorial Park, 305 Mountain View Road, Copake, NY 12516. All routes are on paved, lightly traveled public roads or portions of the rail trail winding through lovely farmland, rolling hills and the picturesque hamlets of the Roe Jan Area in Columbia County, NY.
Riding through Columbia county is beautiful. It's about 1-2 hours north of Westchester, depending on where you live. Well worth the drive. There is also local lodging options listed on the web site, including camping.
The 2026 routes will be published in early September. Start time vary based on the route distance that you choose.
2025 routes are available on the web site.

- 8AC+/14.7101101.4101.40"Cee" One Hundred Miles Once Last Time In 2026Thomas Nee
Flat as a pancake. Well, almost. It's the Maybrook and Dutchess rail trails. One 2-3% railroad grade 400 foot climb that we do both ways.
It's the end of summer. Let's put all that summer fitness to good use on a last 2026 Hundred Hurrah. Perhaps good for Seacoast Century training.
Did this route last May at 14.5mph. Mostly solo. So, if there's more than just me, then we can do somewhat better...maybe 15mph? So posting at 14.7mph to cut the difference. Mostly flat rail trail. The enemy here is you and the winds. You, if you decide too go to hard early and blow up. Winds, well we can pray for tailwinds all the way back. If not, then we'll be going slower.
Only a few stops: 1) Hopewell Junction toilets both ways. Might be a water fountain still working; 2) one of the restrooms before or after the Walkway-Over-The-Hudson (WOTH); 3) at the food stop at a gas station outside of New Paltz. This isn't a luxury tour. It's a keep it rolling affair. Bring two full bottles and snacks to last 35+ miles.
Be realistic about your capabilities. You should turnaround and head back if you even have an inkling that this is too far. To the WOTH would be around 75 mile ride. We'll pass by the parking lot on our way back and you can also bail on the last loop to CT making it 88 miles. Ride leader may ask you to turn around if you're well off pace of the rest of the group.

- 9AC/13.25150.550.50Cape Ann sightseeing tour (Day 1 of 2)Larry Koved
Enjoy the sights of picturesque Cape Ann, Massachusetts. We will be riding along the southern coast, visiting villages such as Manchester-by-the-Sea, Gloucester and Rockport (or beyond!). The departure is a location in Gloucester along our main route.
At the west end of the ride is David S. Lynch Memorial Park, where we'll be able to see Salem, MA across the Rams Horn Channel on the Danvers River. The park is situated on a point with views of the Atlantic Ocean to the East and Woodbury Cove to the west. At one time U.S. President William Howard Taft summered on the property. The site of his summer residence is now an elaborate Italianate Garden with a tea house. The Park also boasts a Carriage House.
On the east end of the ride is the quaint village of Rockport. Along the way we will see beautiful and historic homes, castles, scenic beaches, and seaport villages.
The tentative RWG link is posted based on the route I used last year. There are lots of ways to cut the distance if going out to Rockport is too far for you. This is an easy ride, with most of the ride near sea level. No big / long hills. Easier than a typical WCC C ride.
Here are a few pictures from last year. If we're lucky, we might get some moderate fall foliage as well.
No official lodging location is planned. Contact me if you would like suggestions of a (somewhat) reasonably priced place along or near the route.

Leaving from the David Lynch Memorial park in Beverly, MA, cruise the streets of historic Salem, MA. Maybe we'll get to feel the Halloween vibe. Then head south to the Marblehead and cruise around the peninsula, along the coastline where we can. Take in the autumn sights, beautiful and historic homes, harbors and beaches. It's a relatively short ride, with time for lunch, and hopefully be able to hit the road before rush hour traffic.

We ride through many historic fishing villages in Marblehead, as well as the historic fishing village of Salem.
The route is very flat.

This is a charity ride that I do every year in Manhattan. They close the West Side Highway and the FDR Drive to traffic, and the cyclists have the whole width of those roadways to circumnavigate the island of Manhattan at any pace you like. It's a great way to see Manhattan from a unique prospective. There are rest stops and a party at the finish with food, live music, and even a marching band to welcome you back. It's like a rolling party! Definitely my favorite ride in the city, and one everyone should try at least once.
There is a 30 mile and 50 mile route. Registration is $60 and there is a $250 fundraising requirement. You can get all the info you need here: https://events.nationalmssociety.org/pages/11642?eventID=2778.

- 9AAll/1000.00.00Harvest Ride with Sound Cyclists*LeaderlessLeaderless
Save the date for Harvest Ride, a special event that's an autumn extravaganza with our neighbors in the Sound Cyclists Bicycle Club,
As the leaves turn and wind blows, riders leaving from the Westport train station will head to Silverman's Farm on Sport Hill Rd. in Easton, CT, for its annual Fall Fest. Fall Fest is an annual tradition at Silverman's. Fall foliage sets the backdrop for colorful displays of "New England" squashes, gourds and Indian corn. Hay bales and cornstalks provide a vivid backdrop for photo opportunities and consumption of treats such as cider donuts and apples you can purchase from the farm's market. This autumn extravaganza features nice country roads leading to the farm. On the way, we'll stop to view the famous Banks North Halloween displays. Get ready for some fall fun!
We last participated in this event on October 19, 2024. You can see the ride postings by West Rapaport, Andy Katell, and Bill O'Connell to get a feel for the route options.
Like in 2024, we plan to have multiple rides posted this year.
If you are a Ride Leader please go ahead and post the ride for this event!
