Comments:
“Amazing weekend!!! Organized, great rides that were well led."
"Camaraderie with awesome people. Have been raving about NYCC since I got back.”
“The dorms were clean and comfortable … Saturday’s dinner was an excellent choice! The rides were beautiful and challenging.
“Accommodations were great, the rides were well planned, as well as the other activities — trains, fireworks, walking tour, dinner, lunch stops.
“The C-ride from New Paltz to Brewster on Day 3 was phenomenal with just the right ratio of uphill to down — 20%/80%”
