Friends, we are excited to announce that we will be partnering with the folks at FAHRT as a part of their Tw2j series again this fall on October 10, 2026 at Catskill Outpost and Stamford Coffee in Stamford NY from noon to 5. Similar to last year’s event, there will be food, beverage, music, merch, and good people. We have put together a couple of loops starting and ending at the event.
Download the GPX files from this link. There is a fully paved option, as well as one with some nice unpaved sections.
We will most likely also be doing a casual group ride in the morning from Belleayre to the event. Check insta a little closer to the event date. for details. The leaves are already changing, but we there should still be a bit of residual leaf peeping action to take in. Look forward to seeing you all there!
I’m happy to report that we all made it back in one piece from the massive 2 week European ride that Szabi planned. We missed Lukas, who had to cancel at the last minute because of some events in his family that required his attention.
Here is a mega-gallery from the trip, minus some key stops (most notably Misano, Ancona, Split, Mostar, Sarajevo, and Budapest). We rode about 2200 miles over 12 days and covered over half a dozen countries (I’m sure that Szabi will give a more accurate breakdown when he publishes the itinerary). By the last leg of the trip, I was admittedly too exhausted to be able to safely ride while also trying to get some snaps from the saddle. I do have a bunch of stuff on my phone from when we were not on the bikes, that I may publish in a later gallery. But for now, enjoy these snaps, in no particular order.

We had another great iteration of the annual ADX weekend, this year. It was the same crew as last year with a few caveats. We had a new friend join us on the Friday section, starting in Catskill Park up until we stopped for lunch at Taco29 in Cahajoharie. Lukas’ bike was being a diva and he would not be getting it back from the shop in time to ride (nor could we round up a loaner in time). So he opted to join us on 4 wheels. It was actually pretty nice to have support vehicle come along! Russ was finishing an extended vacay in VT and ended up riding straight from there to meet up with us in Newcomb on Friday Night.
We mixed in a new unpaved section on Saturday, through the heart of Adirondack Park, where we encountered some sections of deep sand and deep gravel. Happily, everyone managed to make it through without issue, even Szabi on the Ducati Hyper, rocking Pirelli Corsa Rosso IVs!
Another highlight from Saturday’s loop was finally having nice enough weather to jump into the secret swimming hole that we stumbled across a couple years ago. Ultimately, we spent so much time goofing around on Saturday, that we did not make it to Lake Placid until well after 4:00PM, and subsequently arrived at the entrance gate for Whiteface after they had closed for the day. Can’t win ’em all!
I logged roughly 740 miles on the weekend. The guys who came up from the city obviously clocked significantly more. Good times were had by all. Can’t wait to do it again next year.

What was meant to be a Memorial Day ride got rained/frozen out and rescheduled for Saturday June 27. We met up on the early side at the P Diner. Most of the usual suspects were traveling or otherwise indisposed. But what we may have lacked in quantity, we made up for in quality. We had a feeling it was going to be a good day, when this dope old Saab pulled up next to our bikes with the top down. The good omen proved to be true. We had ideal weather for the entire ride. Vibes were also in the A+ category. We missed all of those who could not make it. But look forward to seeing you next time! Couple of additional snaps from the ride below– Continue Reading >
We had a bit of a false start on our first attempt at a 2026 spring club group ride over Memorial Day weekend, since it ended up being low 50s and pouring rain all weekend. We’re offering a rebate for what will surely be an excellent day of riding, with a 100ish mile jaunt curated by Szabi (A/K/A the route gawd). Jumping off from the Phoenicia Diner, lunch at Ravenwood, then ending back in Phoenicia. Everyone is welcome to join. Good vibes only. See you there!
On a recent idyllic Saturday morning, the CMC crew joined forces with the folks at Fahrt for the Catskill Brewery edition of their 2wTj series. A few of us met up on the early side in Highmount for a group ride to the event. The weather was brisk, but not chilly and there was barely a cloud in the sky. We took a winding route through Frost Valley and ending up on Debruce Road, along the Willowemoc River before arriving at the brewery on Old Rt. 17. Along the way, there was plenty of excellent fall colored scenery. We rolled into Catskill Brewery shortly before noon, joining a small contingent of riders who were already on site. By 1:00 a really nice sized crowd of riders had gathered. We met some really cool people and generally had a great time. Our group scooted out shortly after 2 and took a long loop back toward CMC headquarters grabbing a snack at Ravenwood before swinging through Ashoken and Bearsville. Sadly, I did not grab any snaps of the post-brewery niceties. Anyway, here is a mega gallery from the morning ride, and brewery event. Enjoy!–
CMC is pleased to announce that we will be partnering with the folks at FAHRT as a part of their Tw2j series on September 13, 2025 at Catskill Brewery in Livingston Manor. For those who would like to join other club members on a ride from the Northern areas of the Catskills to the event, we will be leaving from the Belleayre auxiliary parking lot on the corner of Rt. 28 and Todd Mountain Rd. We plan to meet up between 10-10:30 AM, with kickstands up at 10:30. Additional details here and below. Mark your calendars! See you out there.

Despite having a summer that was hotter and wetter than usual, our annual weekend in the Adirondacks went off virtually without a hitch! In keeping with prior years, we broke bread together in the Catskills on Friday morning before rolling northward toward Gore Mountain where we intended to decamp for the night. Continue Reading >
