CNYC would like to say "thanks" to Marc K. from The Inn at Cooperstown.

http://www.innatcooperstown.com/

They have generously donated the funds so that the first 125 racers at the CYLRR will receive a free pair of Verge socks. CNYC prides itself on low cost racing. We try to keep entry fees as low as possible while still putting on quality events. Without the support of cycling friendly sponsors like The Inn it would not be possible. Please take a moment and visit their website. If you need a room the night before CYLRR give The Inn at Cooperstown a call. It's a great place to stay before the race or any time of the year.

A Spring Classic. We're way past the 10th Anniversary and going strong.
Saturday April 19th. Garrattsville , NY.
New Uphill finish.
Free Socks to the first 125 entrants.
Delicious Donuts after the race.
Spread the word. Come on out and Race.

For the last few years racers at the CYLRR and BVTT have been enjoying Chobani Yogurt as a post race snack. It's tasty, good for recovery and a super local business. I eat a Chobani Yogurt almost every day ! "Nothing But Good."

Many of might think the "Check Your Legs RR" was named to represent an early season test of form.
As in I'm going to check my racing legs to see how I'm riding ? Well yes and no. The inspiration for the name was the 1992 Beastie Boys Album "Check Your Head."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Check_Your_Head

Just recently Adam Yauch ( MCA ) passed away. The man may have left us....but the music and CNYC RR will live on. Thanks Adam for the fun and inspiration.

The NYSBRA has graciously donated two grants to CNYC to help promote CYLRR. The first grant allows all present NYS Road Racing Champions to race for free. You will be expected to wear your RR Champs Jersey !
The second grant is for an additional USA Cycling Official. New Officials need on the job experience.
The NYSBRA grant allows us to hire a second official who does not have as much experience to assist our Chief Official. THANKS NYSBRA. Now Come on out and race.

New Start/Finish. More Miles. More Categories.

For 2012 the Check Your Legs Road Race registration is now located at the New Lisbon Town Hall, located at 908 County Road 16, Garrattsville, NY 13342.
The 2012 race is now held on Saturday so we do not compete with other races. This gives you the chance to race two exciting races in one weekend! ARE YOU UP FOR THAT?
The race is held at a 12.5 Mile Loop with two challenging 1/2 mile climbs. Gearing advice is 39x25.
Race Start is at the Town Hall. Finish is a ± 300 yard uphill road with 3-5% grade coming into Garrattsville on Hwy 51 from the West. Category 1-2-3 racers will receive upgrade points if 5 racers participate, so come all.

The last USPP TT of the year coincided with the Elite Mens Time Trial in Denmark. No medals were given out for the USPP event. But we estimated that if Tony Martin would have ridden our TT this evening he would have finished in a time of 31:30. You gotta be fast if you want to beat Otsego County riders. Better luck next year Tony.

Thanks to all the riders that showed up and raced this year. Thanks as always to Fran and Neil Toombs.
See you all in the Spring for the next TT.

CNYCers Rich Karaz, Steve Gates and Richard Serton kitted up this weekend for the 16th running of the Black Fly Challenge - a 40 mile, point-to-point race in the Adirondacks. The course offers a mixture of asphalt, dirt roads and even some gnarly singletrack towards the finish. This year's race drew over 350 entrants on both mountain bikes and cyclocross rigs. One or two tandems may have even been spotted at the starting line. The two Rich's were both on cross bikes, deciding to trade comfort for speed.
