- 9AHP/G+/134645.645.60Pre- Gobble Week GravelSeth Wolin
It's going to be chilly, crisp and sunny - perfect graveling weather leading into Thanksgiving week. This route takes us up to North Salem and Ridgefield on familiar roads before looping back to Bedford and Katonah, breaking at mile 20 at Union Hall.
Please bring necessary nutriton and hydration, a spare tube/sealant and inflation device.
- 9:30AC+/13.23737.037.00Parkway school to Scott’s cornersBill O'Connell
Starting in Greenwich to reduce drive home traffic in holiday season.
A few rules:
Keep close to right when cars are back.
yield at 4 way stops to cars that beat you to stop, even mid or back group.
If you start with group, end with group unless you make other arrangements with ride leader.
If you are on wait list, text leader.
- 10AC/13.52726.526.50Winter Training Ride SeriesBruce Wells
This is the fourth ride in my Winter Training Ride Series. This is basically the same ride as last week, where we are added an upper loop, which includes another longer hill climb (to work on your climbing skills), and another long fast decent (to work on your counter rotation skills). We are going to go a bit faster than last week, but still slow and work on techinque including riding a straight line, position on the bike, keeping a still upper body and counter rotation techniques for descending. This is a good ride for C and above riders who want to improve their cycling skills. On future rides in the series, we will work on more advances skills and faster riding, but this ride will mostly be about going slow and getting the techinque correct before we try to go faster.
There is no planned stop due to the short distance, so bring anything you might need. I highly recommend grapes for during ride nutrition! Next week we will be doing a 36 mile loop with a stop at a world class bakery.
I will videoing the group with a rewiew at the end of the ride so we can see how we are riding.

Limited to 6 folks due to parking limitations at Castle Park, Brewster. If no one signs up by 730am Sunday, may opt to start earlier.
Don't come to this ride if:
- Don't want to take risk of tree falling on your head (happened last Monday). Winds are only a few miles per hour in Sunday's forecast.
- You haven't been riding 45+ mile rides a few times in the past month. Too many times folks over estimate themselves on this ride and crack bad on the way back.
- You want to pace line and set PRs. Social talking pace envisioned for endurance strong C's. I'm starting slow to be able to finish strong.
- You find beautiful rail trails boring. Yes, the Maybrook Trailway meanders through woods and lakes you'll never see from paved roads. Yes. There's almost no cars except for where it crosses roads.
Do come if you you don't check those boxes above and want to have Bruce Wells approved egg, cheese, sausage sandwich at the gas station deli stop.
Might be debris on the trail so stay vigilant.
Note: WCC website just downgraded the elevaton gain fo this ride. It'll come out closer to 2000 feet.

- 10AHP/G/104444.044.00West Cornwall Dirt -Christine Schopen
Come join me on my favorite gravel ride. We travel alone the Housatonic River then have our rest stop in Sheffield, MA.
Please note I posted this at 10 mph. Last time I posted this at 11 and was dropped by people that averaged 14. If you want to go faster, post your own ride or don't come.
There are two climbs, one gnarlier than the other. Don't come if you have to rush home.

- 6PHP/G/132424.024.00GRAVEL TNR*Ilona Miller
Starting winter night gravel series. This is a NO DROP ride, we are regrouping at major turns, ride is catered to B and up level riders. (Reason I am putting it here is once it gets colder, it will be unfair for the group to wait for the slower than median riders). Helmet light, handle bar light and tail light are a must.
Also dress warmer than you normally would for a day gravel ride, as there is no sun and it will feel about 10F colder. However, also keep in mind that this is gravel and you will be sheltered from wind (and cars) and your power output will be about 1.5x of road.
If you are recycling your road bike, make sure the tires are at least 32mm, this is MOSTLY gravel and hard pack with a little bit of single track (that can be avoided depending on who shows up), and gravel parts can be pretty loose at times when Bedford resurfaces the roads.
It is fun and SAFE, so come and try it. This is after work, so no excuses not to ride, unless you don't have a gravel bike (get a gravel bike!! it will up your road game).

NOTE. Starting ride an hour earlier, at 5 pm, so we can ride off into the sunset. Cloning Ilona's ride, but at a gentler pace, as her rides have been inching up already to 15 mph, alot for me for a nightime hilly and dirty ride. I'm estimating 11 - 13 mph, depending who shows up. This is a NO DROP ride, so we won't ride unless at least 2 people are signed up. We are regrouping at major turns, ride is catered to C+ and up level riders.

This is the fifth ride in my Winter Training Ride Series. This is basically the same ride as last week, but with 10 more miles and a few more hills. We are going to go a bit faster than last week, but still slow and work on techinque including riding a straight line, position on the bike, keeping a still upper body and counter rotation techniques for descending. This is a good ride for slower C+ and above riders who want to improve their cycling skills. On future rides in the series, we will work on more advances skills and faster riding, but this ride will mostly be about going slow and getting the techinque correct before we try to go faster.
We will stop in Scotts Corners at a world class bakery.

- 5PAll/81413.913.90Holiday Lights RideBruce Wells
Dust off your ugliest Christmas sweater and deck your bike with twinkly lights — it's time for our second annual Holiday Lights Ride! We'll roll out after dark to catch the best neighborhood displays on the same tried-and-true route as last year (and maybe spot a few new surprises).
Expect plenty of "oohs" and "aahs," a little holiday music, and a lot of laughter as we cruise at a relaxed pace through the glow of the season. Afterwards, we'll warm up with food, drinks, and good cheer at Wolf & Warrior Brewing just around the corner.
Pro tips:
- Bring your brightest lights and holiday spirit.
- Dress warmly — this is a slow roll and the temps will dip as the night goes on.
- Rain date: Saturday or Sunday, December 27 or 28th.

This is the classic Fast Flat Fifty mile ride. We will ride it at a brisk clip with lots of pacelines and regroup at the top of climbs and at turns to keep the group together. This ride will be faster than the actual 200 mile ride, but will give everyone a good idea of the type of group riding we will need to complete at 200 mile ride at a slower pace.
