Central Park Week Night Rides

Apr 14, 2014 at 10:30 PM

It's 6:30pm on Monday...I'm going to be in CP around 7:15 for a few active recovery easy laps. Feel free to say hello to the slowest dude in the park tonight. I'll be coasting down all the hills and seeing how slowly I can go up Harlem Hill without tipping over.

Hi Marc,
I'm working until 830, otherwise I would definetly ride with you- even though I am kit-less at the moment. If anyone rides on Wednesday nights in the park by all means let me know, I will join you, assuming I can get out of work at the normal 5pm!

We must've been riding on opposite ends of the park @Marc. I was there the same time. I'll post next time I ride in CP.

Crowded out there tonight. I remember when evenings used to pretty quiet in CP! Ran into John Malcolmson and that helped make an already brief recovery ride fly by even more quickly.

Marc and I rode a lap together, here's my cell Central Parkers for future reference 646 785 2107
Maybe we organize a few regular meetups now it's warming? 6-7am, 7-8pm? Any interest?

Hi John,

I'm in CP pretty much every day from 6-7/7:30 after work. Sometimes wearing KCC kit, sometimes not. Always in orange helmet. Keep your eyes peeled.

@Craig Good to know, I am also in the orange helmet if I'm not in KCC kit.

Hola Manhattan-ites,

Since our homies in Brooklyn are having a blast in PP with drills, skills, group workouts, etc, was wondering if any folks would be interested in a regular meet-up for either early morning or late evening rides in Central Park? JP and I chatted about this last week at the tactics talk, just wondering if their was any interest? I would be down for this if we could organize a time that worked for everyone…any takers?

Yes, perhaps a morning schedule now — 6am @ Tavern?

I try to ride most nights at around 7 or 7:30 PM in CP depending on when I get home.

I would be willing to try a 6 AM meetup but could only do it on certain days of the week that would change each week. I would know each Friday what the next week would look like.

Ideally if I'm getting up that early it would be to do something I couldn't on my own: practicing rotating pacelines or some such. If I'm getting up at 5:30 AM it's not going to be for endurance laps.

Ok, same with me I would want to focus on pace-lining, skills, etc. Wednesday and Friday are pretty difficult for me since I have to be at work super early, all other days are fine...

I'm not sure who rides in CP weeknights but just a heads up, the Chase Corporate Challenge is this Wednesday and Thursday (June 4/5) starting at 7pm. Avoid Central Park and surrounding area at all costs (unless you're running, then only maybe)

Central Park people. I would like to gauge interest in a Weekly Thursday 7:30pm @ Tavern group ride for people of the Manhattan highlands to connect. Also 6am training and skills sessions similar to PP'ers — meeting at Tavern as well. Post here if interested or have suggestions.

Thursday evenings could be good for me

JulieJones

This is a great idea...I typically work Thursday night until 8 but I may be interested in Wednesdays evenings and some weekday mornings, depending on the day.

Cool! I have locked in a 7pm @ Tavern for this Thursday, although there is a chance of thunderstorms in which case I'd cancel (646) 785 2107

I'd be happy to try a 6am next Monday/Wednesday. Remember you can post here if you are planning a CP ride on the spur of the moment.

@Stokes Hope you can make it, also I need to drop your trainer back — can I leave with front desk?

Not this week but I may join the Thursday evening rides.

@Gwynna @Julie @Brendan, @Manhattan riders.

If you can make it tonight we can discuss best CP meetups and meet new prospect Maura. It'd be great if we could have someone form KCC Femme to represent.

Gregg Donovan, Maura and myself rolled out for some tempo, joined later by Rigby in yellow.
Maura will be a great asset to the team, she hung tough with our hard tempo, see Strava!
Will try for next week same time at 7:30pm so a few more people can make it.

Tuesday 6am Harlem hill repeats anyone?
