The New England Section of the Veteran-Cycle Club has been riding monthly in Eastern Mass. for five years. It is the only local section of the V-CC outside Great Britain. The rides are at a sociable pace, 1950s British lightweights predominate - other old bicycles are welcome, but fenders are de rigueur - and we often travel unpaved roads and tracks. Most rides are single-day affairs, but there are night rides and occasional overnight tours. The rides are listed in the V-CC magazine NEWS & VIEWS (V-CC membership details are at http://www.v-cc.org.uk), and there is information and an e-mail contact at <http://www.v-cc.org/ne>.

The V-CC and friends are holding an all-British bike ride in Cambridge and Boston on Sunday, September 18, that gathers at the 1369 Coffee House on Mass Ave in Central Square, Cambridge at 1:00 p.m. There is a 50-mile tour to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of the V-CC on Saturday, October 15, meeting at Park Drive and Brookline Ave. in the Fenway at 9 a.m. Why not bring your old bike out for a ride and see if V-CC touring is your cup of tea - or glass of beer, since V-CC rides don't happen without a pub stop.
