NOTE:
Under the Ride Level details, the "Type: Road Bike" refers to the ride will be on paved roads (rather then off road trails). Although a Road Bike is suggested for Road Bike Type rides it is not required. Hybrid and mountain bikes can be used on these rides as well provided you are comfortable with the pace outline in the Posted Ride. This ride calendar is for club rides, club meetings, club event posts and shop rides only.

Join us Sunday, October 10, 2021 for the 6th annual CycleNY Long Island Ride to benefit the NY Bicycling Coalition (NYBC.net). The ride begins at the Stony Brookside Bed and Bike Inn, with 25 mile and 50 mile route options. Both routes boast scenic water views and the area's beautiful mostly lightly traveled back roads. The longer route option includes some more challenging hills.
Join me for this C+ ride, which will average 12.4 - 12.9; no one gets dropped and we will be observing spacing rules, etc. Ride route will be determined by the road conditions; decision to be made the morning of the ride; no cue sheets. We will head to Blue Point, loop around Corey Beach, and stop at the Atlantic Ave. Deli for our break, and there will be a bathroom stop.
Please arrive at least 15 minutes before the ride start, to allow enough time for me to get everyone signed in and to "get yourself" ready.
NOTE #1: You must be a club member to go on club rides.

Ride cancelled. Sorry folks, between rain and wind, not a nice day for riding. Note: At the time of this posting, there is a chance of rain predicted, so be sure to check the ride calendar the day of the ride for changes, which would be posted by 07:15am. Nettie's has excellent baked goods, outdoor seating and indoor bathrooms. To join this ride, text Bill G. at 631-356-3036 with your full name and ride destination.
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 the ride will be between 15.1 to 15.9 mph +/- depending on the roads, wind direction, rider ability, tailwinds, downhills, break-a-ways and other conditions.All of these conditions could change the final average one way or the other. Naturally, the road speed will be higher (15 -18 mph.) to produce the average.
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.
Any cancellation due to weather or any other circumstance will be posted no later than 0715 if necessary. If you have question about the ride just text me at 631.484.3490. Eventually my phone and I will meet in a reasonable amount of time...
