    Details (RL read field instructions carefully): 

    Please note:  This ride leaves from Port Jefferson Home Goods...not Stony Brook.

    PARKING:  Meet near the clothing donation drop bins (on the eastern side of the center) where there are plenty of parking spots. 

    I will be riding from home, but will be at the ride start @ 9:00am for sign in. 

    We'll head to Poquott, Strong's Neck, Old Field and West Meadow.  Back via Lower Sheep Pasture.  So...there are hills, but wait ups as needed and places to stretch your legs if you wish.  Will look to come in @ 13.5, given the hills.

    Please bring snacks and water...there is no formal deli/rest break but we will take short breaks at both the Lighthouse and West Meadow (bathrooms may be closed at West Meadow, but there is a port-o-potty).

    --------------------------------------------------------------

    12:45 p.m. update. Another day that's hard to call... But they are predicting unsettled weather and potentially strong storms again late this afternoon and this evening. So I am going to move this ride to Thursday morning, out of Port Jefferson Station. I will update ride details tonight.

    ----------------

    Leave work a little early...and join us as we travel scenic backroads thru the Stonybrook-Setauket area: historic places, great views, great sunsets, great folks. We are a diverse group out for an enjoyable ride and fun nite.  There are places to stretch your legs ahead and wait ups after climbs.  But please note this is not a "race ride".  Apres ride dinner.

    PLEASE - bring/use lights if you have them.  And wear bright clothing.  Sunset is earlier now, so bring and wear whatever hi-vis gear you have. 

    PARKING NOTE:  School and work is back in full swing and parking may be tight at the RR lot.  If you don't see a spot, exit the lot and go right.  Park behind Sterling National Bank (just west of the RR lot and Quaker Path traffic light).   

    Long range forecast is showing possible rain next week (again!...sigh.....)  So check ride calendar for any changes or cancellations by 3:00pm the day of ride.
