How is the smoke over on 9W? It’s pretty bad in Ridgewood right now 
I’m planning to be at GWB at 8
I won’t be able to make it because of work 
Sorry folks sitting this one out. FYI there's an air quality alert and it's been noticeably bad here in eastern queens.
I will be at the GWB at 9am Saturday 
I had to sit out Saturday for family stuff but I’m gonna try and make it out for the Kissena ride on Sunday.
Sunday (tomorrow, 11/17), gwb 9am, looking to do a fast ride to nyack via 9w/river road (figure moderate to hard hard paceline north and then see how we feel going south). Anyone interested?
I’m down for Nyack but do not have the fitness level right now for a hard pace. I road River Road last weekend and it was passable but had a lot of debris right after the Great Wall that needed extra care and some sletchy road conditions a little further north. You gotta take a moderate or easy pace till the alpine climb to be safe, IMO.
BLACK FRIDAY November 29th, 9:30am Cunningham on Cyclocross Bikes

As it has become tradition, we'll be riding black Friday at Cunningham.

Cross, Gravel, or Mountain bikes are welcomed.

Kissena members and non-members are too welcomed, but riders are expected to be self sufficient and have experience riding single track. 

Riding trails is a ton of fun, riding trails with friends is the best kind of awesome fun! 

Let's go ride bikes!



Rolling north from GWB at 9am tomorrow Sunday the 24th. Easy pace, get a coffee/pastry, enjoy the vibes
A reminder...

Great riding with you guys. Realize how much out of shape I am in and how much off road bike handling skills I've lost... When life settles down much work to do....


about a minute of your butts, while riding Cunningham on Black Friday. Thanks all for coming out, was really fun!!

Mark, Jeff and I rolled out for a NYE ride to Nyack this morning. It was the first dry and warm day in… weeks? Anyways, I guess most people were out of town or working as there were very few riders out on the roads. 

The temps will drop again this weekend but it will be dry so hope to see some of you out there. Happy New Years everyone!
Happy new year 
Hoping to join this weekend - thinking early bird chill ride on Sunday but can switch to Saturday if that's when people are riding.
I'm down for Sunday.  Uber chill pace.
I should be around for chill sunday vibes
Sunday looks like a more tolerable temprature day 

Down for Sunday!

Your supposed to encourage folks to come out and play 😂
All I know is we are going to make it epic if it's Matty's last ride for a while. Mr Freeze doesn't play!
What time at GWB? 8 or 8:30?
Both!
