Being a volunteer for Century Road Club Association does come with perks.

While planning our CRCA Year End Party a couple months ago, our friends at Trek asked if we’d like to host Jens Voigt during a visit to NYC. Um… YES PLEASE! While we tend to be spoiled by more than our fair share of celebrities sightings here in NYC, a rare opportunity to ride around one of the world’s most iconic parks, with one of the cycling world’s most iconic world tour riders, was not to be passed up.

So, the morning of our Year End Party, Jens Voigt met up with a few of CRCA’s VIPs — board members, sponsors & donors, and a few special volunteers, for a few loops of Central Park, followed by coffee. A quintessential New York City cycling experience.
