Text me I'll sign you in. 516-680-1052

More miles = more smiles. This week we will be adding a few more miles, after the break at the bagel shop in Riverhead.

The pace on this ride has lately been on the higher end of the B/B+ range, as everyone is getting stronger.  Still, we won't leave anyone on their own on this ride.

This will be a paceline ride, where everyone will work together to share pulls into the wind.  it will be a controlled paceline, though.

So come on out and get those Spring miles in.   It will get you ready for Summer riding!

Let's go!

Off to Smithpoint and Osprey Point parks, with their wonderful water views.  Bring snacks and drinks since we make stops at both parks.  We do pass a 7-11 if you want to pick up something along the way.  Restrooms coming and going at Wertheim National Wildlife Preserve, and there is a restroom at Smithpoint County Park.

Not particularly hilly, not entirely flat, not really rolling, mostly some north shore upgrades and pretty Belle Terre scenery. There is an optional hill which others can avoid by meeting at the top of the hill via a flat route.
