FLCC> Thursday slow ride

[Andrejs Ozolins]

Tursday Night Slow Ride: 5:30 pm, Tompkins Prof Bldg parking lot, NY 96 
north just past the entrance to the hospital.
------------------------------------

Well, the latest winter appears to be lifting on a beautiful day for the 
first FLCC Thursday night ride of the year.

This is a ride for people who can't or don't want to or are afraid they 
can't ride fast. If you (like me) haven't been riding all winter through 
cold and snow, you might want to join us on West Hill for an hour and a 
half of easy riding. The routes are usually not hilly, distances are 
moderate, and nobody gets dropped.

Especially now, at the beginning of the year, if you're wondering if you 
might like to do some group rides, this is a weekly opportunity to check 
it out. There are no prerequisites (other than a helmet). Over the years 
we've had people take part on mountain bikes, comfort bikes, heavy bikes 
and light bikes and dressed in everything from lycra to levis.

The ride meets at 5:30 pm, Thursdays, at the Tompkins Professional 
Building parking lot on NY 96, just a bit past the entrance to the 
Cayuga Medical Center (hospital). Coming from Ithaca, head west on 
Buffalo Street; after you cross the bridge go about 2.5 miles up the 
hill. There is a traffic light at the entrance to the hospital; go past 
that about 100 yd. and enter the parking area on the right.

There is a TCAT bus that arrives there around the time of the ride; a 
nice way to arrive for a bike ride.

If you have questions or are running late, call me, 592 0780.
