    New here

    Hi I just moved to NYC from LA. I'm used to riding canyons in a hot weather. Anything like that, minus the hot, with low traffic in NYC area?

    Head north my child. Get outta NYC. One could argue to head over to long long island but that place is hell until at least Riverhead.

    Also, join their FB group.

    https://www.facebook.com/groups/NewEnglandRiders

    Also, head north a bit to MOTO Coffee Machine in Hudson NY, many riders congregate there and know the great roads in the area.

    Wow, a New Yorker identifying as a New Englander.
    Usually it’s the douchebags from southern CT acting like they’re New Yorkers.

    Yes, and it seems that NESR has become a total ManCave after the juveniles drove away or silenced the women. If it's riding discussion you're interested in, I'll say it again, join New England Riders (NER) on FB.

    I landed here after looking on reddit. There is a huge sport bike community in LA area that welcomes all with some badass girls with some sick riding skills. I hoped to find it somewhere here. I'll keep looking but thanks for the replies!

    If you are at all into track riding or you want to try it out check out Cyclesmith Track Days (website and Facebook page) as they have a large group of women riders. One of the owners is a woman racer/rider as well.

    I wonder if we've met. Did you ever do Her Trackdays or any trackdays in SoCal? Ever meet up at ACH? I ride with a few of the bigger SoCal IG "influencers" haha

    Yeah, don't let these assholes scare you away. We actually welcome most as well, but we've also got quite a mix of riders, styles & machines. Unfortunately, you probably won't meet up with many around here seeing as you're in NYC.

    Either way, we're glad you found us!
