Thursday looks like a warm day so lets do a leisurely HP/G ride to my favorite cafe , The Black Cow in Croton. Be at Reservoir Rd in Katonah by 9:15 for the safety brief. The "No Trail" designation means we won't be doing the single track along the Croton River. Be sure your bike is in good working order and I hope to see you!
- 4:45PA-/193332.632.60Thursday Night Training Ride*Bruce WellsThe longest climb of the series as we have to climb to the top of Chestnut Ridge, but we avoid the descent into Bedford, so less climbing than the Rt 22 loop. Back by dark, but bring a light. Ride leaves promptly. Sunset: 6:39pm *Unaffiliated Ride

- 9AB+/17.55858.058.0013 Ponds and reservoirsWest Rapoport
THIS IS A FUN ONE! Let's take a ride along some beautiful terrain. I may not be able to count, but we will see a lot of water!
This is a variation of the usual Boyd's ride (which is always really good) but I have added in White Pond and a PAVED Gypsy Trail.
Some beautiful, roads, mixed with a few miles on busier roads. Most of the real climbing is done by mile 27! Rest stop at mile 35
17.5 is the pace but, as always, it tends to creep up. If we have a considerate group, pace lining will make the speed pretty easy. (READ: Be considerate. If you intend on joining just to blow up the ride, please post your own ride.)
Bring enough fluids, nutrition to get to the first stop. Working bike, tubes, CO2 etc.
Less than 3 people signed up by 8 pm Fridaycancels the ride, so come out and enjoy the amazing weather!
- 9AB/157675.775.70Peekamoose RevisitedEric Pier-Hocking
Tom and I are looking to do Bill's ride at a bit of a friendlier pace. Come out and climb!
Join us in New Paltz for one of the best rides around. 75 miles with 7,000 feet of screamimg downhill fun. Quick stop at the bait shop (mile 37) and a more proper stop at the market (mile 55).
- 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.
- 9AD/9.52121.121.10Yorktown Town Hall to Mahopac on the North County TrailGeorge Klein
We ride almost exclusively on the North County Trail, going aroud Lake Mahopac and then making a pit stop and grabbing a bite at Dino's in Mahopac.
Briing helmet, water, good cheer.

- 9AB/15.45049.749.70Glenville - New CanaanDavid Klur
I've been away for a month, and missed riding with WCC! So join me Sunday morning for a nice ride (on the lower end of the B pace range) from Glenville School to NewCanaan. Break at Upper Crust Bagels in New Canaan at mile 29.5.
- 9AC/13.22727.327.30Salem and Marblehead tour (Day 2 of 2)Larry Koved
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.
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.
We ride through many historic fishing villages in Marblehead, as well as the historic fishing village of Salem.
The route is very flat.
Here are a few pictures from last year. If we're lucky, we might get some moderate fall foliage as well. The RWG is tentative and likely to be updated - especially between Beverly and Salem where there was road construction last year.
No official lodging location is planned. Contact me if you would like suggestions of a (somewhat) reasonably priced places on Cape Ann.

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.
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me directly.
If you're an existing ride leader interested in helping out, please sign up as I'll need help

- 7:15AAll/133030.030.00Bike MS NYC**Steven Schwartz
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 - Westport*LeaderlessLeaderless
Save the date for Harvest Ride, a special event that's an autumn extravaganza,
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!

I did this a couple years ago and it was a blast. Great roads. Great beers at the finish, from S & S Farm Brewery. If you've done Farmer's Daughter, the brewery is the first rest stop on that ride.
