NMTS Ride Schedule

NOTE: In addition to these one time rides, the club has recurring rides most days of the week. To view them, choose the "Weekly Rides" link in the menu at your left.

Pace is the speed, plus or minus one, that will be maintained on flat terrain with no wind. Distance refers to miles traveled in a day; on multi-day rides it refers to total miles for the trip, and a daily average is calculated from that.

Rides with a light-green background occur over multiple days

HELMETS CSPC, Snell or ANSI Approved Helmets are REQUIRED for all NMTS rides.
EBIKES Class 1 E-bikes are welcome where conditions allow, and at the ride leader's discretion. Class 2 and Class 3 E-bikes are not permitted on NMTS rides.

Eight day tour along the Erie Canal. This ride covers the 400 miles from Buffalo to Albany largely along the tow paths of the Erie Canal, the canal that connected the Hudson river to the Great Lakes. Fully supported, the registration fees cover camp sites, most breakfasts and dinners, gear transportation, and sag support. The canal ride starts July 7 in Buffalo, and ends July 14 in Albany. An optional 50 mile ride to Niagara Falls will take place on July 6. A bicycle is the best way to see the falls.
