Board And Staff
Larry Kelley
Board Chair
Larry, a long time resident of New York City, enjoyed cycling long distances as a youth. In his own words, "My bike allowed me to cycle though and explore the diversity of neighborhoods in my childhood city." Larry came to the OutCycling board with the vision of expanding the three key pillars of the organization; Fearless Flyers program, Pride Ride and Adult Division.
George DeLancey
President, OutCycling - Adult Division
George DeLancey is the President of OutCycling’s Adult Division, and an avid cyclist and runner who loves long miles, hard climbs, and the friendships forged along the way.
For George, cycling is a way to connect—to yourself, to the city, and most importantly, to community. In a place like New York, where life can move fast and feel isolating, he sees OutCycling as something more than a cycling club. It’s a space to belong.
His vision is to grow OutCycling into the most welcoming, visible, and vibrant LGBTQ+ cycling community in the country. One that reflects the full spectrum of our identities, includes allies, and celebrates every rider—no matter their pace, background, or path to the bike.
He lives on the Upper West Side with his husband Jack and their dog Bear—and he’d love to ride with you.
Mark Winkler
Secretary, OutCycling
Mark combines over 30 years of business leadership with a passion for advocacy.
As Senior Vice President, Creative Director at Jack Morton Worldwide, he directed
award-winning branding and creative campaigns. Born in Kenora, Ontario, Mark studied
Opera Performance at the University of Michigan, later serving as Musical Director at
Greenwich Country Day School. His advocacy extends to marginalized communities,
particularly young adults who are developmentally delayed. He co-authored My Art,
My World to highlight his niece's talents, Rita Winkler, a Canadian painter with
Down syndrome, promoting inclusion through art.
Now based in Brooklyn Heights with his dog, Jake, Mark is an advocate for
animal rights, sustainability, and diversity. He dedicates his time to volunteering,
mentoring, and supporting creative and inclusive initiatives, blending professional
expertise with a commitment to equity and community enrichment.
Graham Weinstein
Co-Founder & Treasurer
Graham, a life long New Yorker, first experienced the power of group cycling when training for and completing a 3-day 275 mile fundraising ride from Boston to NY. As a novice cyclist, Graham's love for cycling was born. In 2010, Graham together with his riding partner at the time created OutCycling, the leading LGBTQ+ cycling network for everyone.
As the former Communications Manager for New York Road Runners, Graham worked ten New York City Marathons and witnessed the power of bringing people together to push themselves, physically and mentally, toward a shared goal.
Graham lives in New York City with his husband and 4 bikes. Read more about Graham and the early years of OutCycling here:

Peter Eatroff
Operations Director, OutCycling
Peter has been riding since he was 6 years old, and it has been a consistent source of joy and well-being. His dad bought him a 1970 Schwinn Varsity when he was in the 7th grade and he has pedaled nothing but 70s steel Schwinns ever since. His favorite way to spent a weekend is exploring new roadways, getting lost, and then always finding his way home.
Peter joined OutCycling 5 years ago and has ridden and led countless rides since then. What he loves most about being part of OutCycling is introducing others to the extreme joy one feels while cycling. There’s nothing more gratifying than riding with someone new to the sport and watching them grow that same sort of love. His number one priority is ensuring that every rider on the road has fun. When he says, “Enjoy the ride!” he means it.
