Interval training on Route 51. It is not a steady pace ride. There will be two stops to regroup. Strava numbers not important. It's not a race. It's a workout!

Ride is obviously on. No chance of rain.

Weather forecast as of Monday afternoon is for showers in the AM.  Be sure to check back tomorrow.  I’ll decide by 7:30AM and post decision either way.

Same ride as last week.  We’ve been averaging in the low 14’s, so I’m changing the designation.  

For this ride, you need to do 14-16 on the flats.  On the hills, it’s just you and the hill.  Take the hill at your own pace and, week by week, get stronger.  Wait-ups after every hill give all of us a chance to recover before the next one.  Small break at Old Field Lighthouse, snack and bathroom break at West Meadow.  The “plus” is our ride down Trustees Road.

This morning it might be nice to take a ride through Bellport and Patchogue stopping for a break at Mickey D’s around mile 20.

Naturally, the road speed will be higher (15 -16.5 mph.) to produce the average. Depending on the wind and the route back we might be +/- a mile.
