NYC Ride?

[Dave]

So I'm a former New Yorker (but you'll never get the NY *totally* out of the boy ;-) and I've
seen/heard/read about this "NYC" ride, that is like a century, or metric, that hits all 5
boroughs...

I'd love to plan a trip to the old stomping ground around this ride. Anyone have any info on when it
is, if it is, who might be running it (website would be great) or if I was just hallucinating the
whole thing?

Thanks in advance....

Since you're posting to a racing newsgroup, I'll assume that you're talking of the NYC Challenge.
Contact Threshold Sports for more information, they will be ecstatic to get your inquirires.

You are very welcome. Merry New Year.

Actually, my mistake. I have subscriptions to r.b.racing and r.b.rides, and I meant this to go to
rides. I do know about the NYC challenge, and if the training goes well, I may actually enter, but I
was wondering about a touring ride though....

You might be refering to the 5 boro bike tour. It is usually some time in early May.

In addition to that "5 Boro" ride, there's a "NYC Century Bike Tour" in September:
http://www.transalt.org/calendar/century/index.html Don't know if it hits all 5 boros, though.

Thanks a lot Alex. I have won this tour 5 years in a row, now you put it on RBR and everybody is
going to show up.
