Rocky Point to Nissequogue River to Northport. My hill ride extended into Ron's Wild Turkey Ride. This is an A ride with Plenty of Hills and you must be self sufficient, however there WILL BE WAIT UPS! The group WILL stay together! This is a training ride to get stronger where nobody gets dropped! Warming up with some rollers then hitting the hills of Port Jeff, rollers through Setauket, Head of the Harbor, Nissequogue, Kings Park, Fort Salonga and Northport, mostly rollers on the way back. This is a hilly ride so be prepared with energy/fuel and hydration. We will have a deli stops for refills. I'll post any changes by 5:00am morning of ride, if unsure, contact me. See you then! I will have a cue sheet for the western segment. The garmin activity shows the added 15 miles at the end if anyone is up to it. http://connect.garmin.com/activity/349677907

You must register for this ride on www.active.com (not sure if there is registration the day of). This is a ride to benefit/support organ donation. Nice flat ride, good give-aways, free food at the end and reduced prices on wine. The ride does not leave til 9:00 but get there early so you can get ready, put your goodies in the car and meet up. If you have an SBRA jersey, it might be nice to wear it. See Bobby's post for additional info. My cell phone is 516-330-1542. Bring a snack for midway, just in case you don't like what they offer.

Soon they will be charging to get into the park so I want to get one last ride in before this starts. We will ride out to Manorville, stopping for a break for Bagels or Burgers/or breakfast. Everyone stays together and pace will be between 15.7-16 mph. Everyone stays together. Check back the morning of the ride for any updates due to weather.

So the Century Training Rides have been completed...
The Century Ride has been ridden... SO...........

Come along and get Re-Acquainted with your fellow "B" riders that you may NOT have
ridden with since last fall.

Dave will lead approx. half the slightly faster riders and I will lead the rest of the group.
Both groups will have sweeps and we will keep all the riders together.

Last time to Ridge from the park

Quick ride out to Area 51 and back... ALL level of B+ riders welcome.. Faster group can go ahead.. regroup as need

This is a long post; please click “read more” at the bottom for the entire post and additional links, thanks! I heard from some members who have done this ride in the past it’s a good course. I would like to get a group together, for what appears to be a fun day.

After the ride there will be free food, live music, giveaways and wine tasting at Osprey’s Dominion as well as discounted prices on wine bottles for riders! . I have posted this as an unstructured ride since I don’t know who will show up.

However, I will be doing a B- at my usual average pace within the range. . If you don't want to do a B- pace then you might prefer to form another group ( see Tricia's post & Bob Miller's ) with riders of your own level. Yes, you have to dig in the pocket for some money; it’s for a good cause. Check the link below for more information about the ride and how to make a donation.

Please attach a comment to this posting, letting me know if you’re interested or have signed up for the ride. You may also call me at 631-484-3490. Check link below for arrival times, and all other necessary information. I would like to have our group me no later than 8:15AM. I will have a SMILEY FACE ballon flying from my car unless it interferes with low flying birds. http://www.active.com/peconic-ny/cycling/races/north-shore-bike-tour-2014

Read Bobby Ploetz's excellent description of this ride (B-). We'll meet at his car as he says he'll have balloons flying from his car. I will scour Manhattan tomorrow for balloons to attach to my car in case his balloons dissipate. 917-797-7873
