**Update 12/07/2014 - 7:25AM – RIDE CHANGED - Due to the high winds the route will be shortened to about 20 to 22 miles. The wind is out of the North so this shortened route will only go about 3 miles in that direction. Bring your umbrella and we will play Mary Poppins.**

How about taking a ride to Great River today? We will go the usual route through Connetquot Park and then do a loop in Heckscher Park where one can stretch the legs a bit. The route is mostly flat with 2 little hills; maybe 3. The average pace for this ride will be between 14.8. & 15.0 mph, depending on the wind and other factors. The road speed will be 15-17 mph to produce the average. We will be making a deli/rest stop somewhere between miles 18 and 20. After the ride cookies and supplies; I think. Maybe a sale at Guinta's, who knows.

My cell number is 631.484.3490; call anytime if you have questions about this ride or need directions to the start. Please check the ride calendar for any weather, or last minute cancellations which will be posted no later than 8:00AM if necessary.
