A quick scenic morning ride - leaves the rest of the day free to get on with all the other stuff in your life. The ride is c+/b- due to the hills, on the flatter sections we keep a B- pace. There are several spots where faster riders can go ahead and there will be wait ups for slower riders (me!). No one will be left behind, do the hills at your own pace.
*** THIS IS THE RIDE THAT WAS POSTPONED ON SATURDAY ***
Well Hell's Bells, it's May and it's time to put on your horns, and add some more fun to our rides! This ride will be about 46 miles, leaving the South Street School at 9:00 AM with a eventual stop in Westhampton Beach.
So we'll head up to the old Grumman property to get some warm-up miles, then it's down Route 24 to the Alien Highway- the gateway to Hell. Then it's the Highway to Hell: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gEPmA3USJdI, as we ride through the hellish Land of the Dimpled Ball. After a regroup, it's a fast run down County Road 31 to the stop in Westhampton Beach.
After a chance to cool-off any singed tailfeathers, we'll head back along the south route, heading through Eastport (new turn) and Center Moriches. So don't burn all your feathers early on; you'll need them to fly you home!
There is road work on Route 25 between Wading River Manor Road and William Floyd Parkway, so we are going to avoid that area. The first loop of the ride will be eliminated. Thus, we will proceed from VMP directly through Grumman and towards the tanks. This will eliminate 12 miles from the ride, changing the distance from 56 miles to 44 miles.

This ride will be a steady 21 to 23mph for 56 miles. We will stop at Main Road Biscuit for a brief break. Consider making a purchase as we don't want to end up back at 7-11. Hope to see you at the start
We'll do the Intermediate trail which has a lot of hills at the north end. The wind will still make the woods inviting as you will hear the howl instead of fighting it. There are a number of B level Black Diamonds and the trail is laid out to bring riders back to all the BDs so folks can wait to re-join the group if they want to skip a DB or DBD. Check back later for more info.
The ride will be following the SBRA COVID-19 Guidelines. PLEASE text (@ 631-988-6557) or email @ me with your rider information (Name, Member #, Emergency #, Cell #). IF I don't receive any text messages I may vary the start time a bit. [nsamuels@optonline.net].

You must have a mask on your person to do this ride ...
Remember to check back as Life Happens and Things Change!
Today's’ route to Great River will change up a bit towards the end of the ride, if the wind is in our favor; making this route pretty flat except for 2 overpasses. We will go the usual route heading south using the Connetquot Park bike bath. We’ll work our way down to Heckscher Park, do a loop where one can stretch the legs a bit if desired. The ride could end end up a mile or 2 over 30.
The average pace for this ride will be between 14.5 & 15.0 +/- mph, or what conditions allow. The road speed will be between 15 and 17.0 mph.
Please DO NOT PARK in the Meat Farms parking lot. Use the west side of the bank if the east side is full. Thanks!
We’ll be making a rest stop around mile 19 at the deli/bakery. The route back will be determined by the wind direction. Good Stuff after the Ride; Think Tennessee.
Any cancellations due to unforeseeable circumstances, or weather related problems will be posted by 8:00am. If you have any questions about this ride, please text my cell, 631-484-3490.
Join me for ride from Eastport to Westhampton. This is a C+/B- ride, which will average 13.5 - 14.0, partly depending on the winds, the riders, etc. Since the exact route will be determined at the start, so there willnot be a cue sheet for this ride. We will ride part of Dune Road (direction determined by the winds that day) and then take our break in Westhampton at the Beach Bakery, where bathrooms and food are available.
