NOTE:
Under the Ride Level details, the "Type: Road Bike" refers to the ride will be on paved roads (rather then off road trails). Although a Road Bike is suggested for Road Bike Type rides it is not required. Hybrid and mountain bikes can be used on these rides as well provided you are comfortable with the pace outline in the Posted Ride. This ride calendar is for club rides, club meetings, club event posts and shop rides only.

We are doing a low B- average, about 15 on the flats and whatever we can manage on the hills. On hills, it's each cyclist for himself, no need to "keep up" with the leader. We meet up at the end of our climbs and take a breather/drink as necessary.
B- to the lighthouse in Oldfield and West Meadow Beach. Rest stop/ bathroom break at the beach
Get your hill practice served many different ways by the hills of the Three Villages. Our break is at West Meadow Beach; bring your own snack. Bathroom stop at the beach. On the non-hills, we expect to cruise at mid B- pace. On the hills, each does his/her own best effort and we meet at the top — no pressure there. There are spots where faster riders can push ahead.

I am changing the usual start location of JFK Elementary School to the Sayville train station since it looks like part of our usual route along Union Blvd is in the process of being repaved. We'll either head east to Bellport or west to Oakdale. Mileage is approximate, Bellport route would be longer. Cancellation for any reason will be posted by 2PM.
Please note: We will be leaving promptly at 5:45pm, so please plan accordingly. Sunset is earlier now, so the start time is moving up a bit. Bring lights if you have them.
