Sounds awesome. I'll look forward to the June 11 edition. To any new members lurking on this forum, if you see this: don't hesitate to go to this clinic. JP is a good teacher and it's fun to practice with clubmates.

This sounds mega.

@RileyHoonan Looking at my work schedule, this seems extremely doable for me. I am 99% in for this one on the 11th. Unless something drastic at work occurs.
May 21, 2016 at 03:07 PM
I'm in
May 21, 2016 at 04:11 PM
I may do family man hours tomorrow to Piermont. BB 6:00am. Let me know if anyone is interested. I'll confirm this evening.

I think we're a big enough club that we can do two such clinics, one this weekend and one June 11. There are lots of new people and there's no racing locally this weekend, so far as I can tell.
And, if we do it at Rockleigh, the crit course we pass on our regular Sunday ride, it won't be a hassle to get to.
here's the basic outline of what I"m thinking:
about 60 minutes at rockleigh
a few laps to familiarize with the course.
Several laps of a rotating pace line on the course.
a segment where we have two groups, a lead group and follow group, and people are supposed to attack the follow group and bridge to the lead group.
dueling lead-outs—we’ll use water bottles to mark the finish line, 200m, 600m, and 1k. One person accelerates at 1k to 600, the second 600-200, the last sprints. We could have two three-person teams do this at once. They take a lap to chill, then switch positions.

Can we have a show of hands for the clinic? I might have missed something, but seems like everyone is Battenkilling.

Beautiful day on the bike , and yes Jill , Turin is the same place as Torino

Fantastic weather and relatively empty roads made for a super pleasant ride to Piermont for iced coffee, snacks, and the final 20k of the Giro.

Anyone up for a group ride on Saturday? I'm not racing white plains on Sunday, so looking to put in some good miles Saturday.
Jun 01, 2016 at 02:31 PM
I am in
Jun 01, 2016 at 02:36 PM
I'm in too - looking to do some hard miles.
Jun 01, 2016 at 02:38 PM
Scott, Giacomo,Eddie really? Why don't we all smash up the watermelon crit?
Jun 01, 2016 at 02:39 PM
in the middle of moving, so saturday will race central park -- on the guise that it'll have me home early -- the watermelon crit was a blast last year.
Jun 01, 2016 at 02:46 PM
hm... yea, you are right I know, but I am not much a crit type of rider... but I will be at the Castelli series! We can smash that.JamesShaw said:Scott, Giacomo,Eddie really? Why don't we all smash up the watermelon crit?

I'm in for a long ride Saturday. 8 a.m. BB 9 a.m. GWB. Will be looking to do some climbing, so thinking Bradley-Tweed -> Water tower -> Toga climb -> home.
I'm done with racing until after the wedding and honeymoon, otherwise I'd be all over Watermelon. Gotta protect this pretty mug.
