This will be the best "Lobster Ride" yet! Don't miss out on your chance to enjoy a day with your SBRA buddies that begins with a beautiful scenic ride along some of Long Island's most beautiful coastline and ends with a great waterfront meal. We will enjoy our meal at a NEW location this year. The outdoor seating on the oceanside provides beautiful panoramic views and is a great place to hang out, relax, and enjoy a great time with your SBRA friends.

Park in the southeast corner of the Waldbaum's/Wendy's lot, under the trees near the RR tracks.
Honest pace as advertised. Dishonest riders don't get a cue sheet. Can ride if not planning to eat lobster but lunch is now sold old.
Dune Road is freshly paved. Paceline on Dune Road 19-22 mph as conditions permit. (slower with a headwind, faster with a tailwind) Go nuts on Dune Road if you must. The rest of the time group stays together. Rollers on return will bring avg down to 17.5 or so. Pit stop at deli/cafe on Shinnecock Ave. with return inland.
Bring your change of clothes and cleanup stuff (I'm not supplying personal grooming stuff, towels or washcloths) and you can follow me back to my house around the corner after the ride to get neat an' pretty, then go to the restaurant in time to get lunch tickets at noon
This is it boys and girls, guys, and gals, ladies and gents or whatever is politically correct now-a-days; this is going to be one of the best days ever. What more could you want lobster, a great ride with your friends and hopefully, a beautiful sunny day with little wind. The ride will take us East through all the streets you have been on before. There will be a break at, where else, the Beach bakery around mile 15, give or take. The pace for the ride will be between 14.7 & 15.0 mph +/- a tad depending on the wind, road conditions, and most importantly; the group!
My cell phone number is 631.484.3490; call anytime if you have questions or need directions to the start. The ride will be cancelled only if the Lobster Ride is. One final thing, if you don’t want your lobster Chris or I will be available to take it off your hands.
