Crankees - here it is, the long awaited and anticipated training calendar (through Burlington).
Before getting to the next training ride, we have an event planned for Wednesday April 22nd:

Team Happy Hour & Tire Changing Demo
Wednesday, April 22, 2015
5:30 p.m.
Van Diemens - 383 3rd Avenue (between 27th & 28th)
Your coaches will put on a tire changing demonstration for pleasure of all attendees.
Please RSVP to Karena, cc'd on this EMail.

Our next training ride is scheduled for this Sunday, April 12th.

We'll meet at 8:30 a.m. at the 5th Avenue and East 90th Street entrance to Central Park, Manhattan for  +/- 4 loops ( that's about 24 miles). 

We will (try to) work on general riding skills and riding in a group. Please note that the ride will depart at 8:30 am; all last minute preparations, pre-ride discussions, etc. will occur in the 5-10 minutes leading up to our departure time.  Both Cary & I will be riding so varied training distances are possible.  Please RSVP so we know who to expect.

We'll let you know in advance what we have planned for future rides, with meet-up details, etc., but here's a summary so you know what's coming up:
