Roosevelt Island Central Park Wards Island NYC Ferry to Wall Street Battery Park Brooklyn Bridge Brooklyn Piers Manhattan Bridge Williamsburg Bridge Gantry State Park
The route is about 35 miles with about 900 ft of elevation. It also includes a ferry ride down the East River from 90th Street to Wall Street. A 35 mile city ride plus a ferry segment and stops for sightseeing and photos can be a longer day than you might expect. I hope to be back at the cars by 3pm.
Bring snacks and gels. There will be a food stop somewhere along the way. Here's links to the most likely routes:
Obviously… not your typical "club ride". This will be much more of a "tour ride". I'm very selective about the roads/paths I choose. Many will have a designated bike lane... a few might not. If you have a fear of heights, bridges could be an issue, but we take them very slow.
This is a B+ ride ... not so much for the speed, but for the hills (+ bridges) and general confident bike handling skills required to navigate a variety of advanced cycling situations. This is also an RSVP ride... and because of the limited space for bicycles on the ferry, I may limit the ride to a group of six people maximum.
Contact me (text) in advance if you plan to come. Provide me with your SBRA Member # and I'll sign you in. The ride will be a "go" even if only one other rider is interested.
Please note the new ride-start location for this year. If you need an address for your GPS, then use 42-25 Vernon Blvd, Queens, NY 11101

I used someone else's RwGPS route which starts at a school in Tarrytown.

Obviously… not your typical "club ride". This will be much more of a "tour ride". I'm very selective about the roads/paths I choose. Many will have a designated bike lane... a few might not. In the Bronx, we are definitely riding the mean streets. If you have a fear of heights, bridges could be an issue, especially the RFK, but we will be taking them very slow.
This is a B+ ride ... not so much for the speed, but for the hills (+ bridges) and general confident bike handling skills required to navigate a variety of advanced cycling situations.

If you want a general idea of what these city rides are like... here's a well-done video put together nicely by SBRA member Bob Emmerich on the last city ride:
So, it looks like Sunday will be a windy one, so why don't we play the wind avoidance game in Manorville and the Pine Barrens again? We'll hit some old favorites like Mill Road and Hot Water Street. Plan on a ride that's nearly non-stop except for some wait-ups, so we get warmed-up and keep on going!
I am posting at a B+ level mainly due to the rolling terrain, but we may come in at a B/B+ average. Stronger B/B+ riders are welcome to join along; there will be wait-ups!

So what if it's Friday the 13th! Lots of Mtn Bikers have gotten their start here ... I don't think ticks will be a problem as the trails have gotten pretty wide since COVID kept people home and they rode more ;-). I will have spray if someone wants to use it. We aim to stay on the trail!
I will ride as slow as the slowest rider. If no begineers call or show than figure this to be an Intermediate ride and we'll do most of the BDs but it won't be fast.
This venue requires a DEC parking permit (haven't seen anyone being checked for a long time though). Easy to obtain a permit here: https://www.sbraweb.org/node/6490
If you don't have a permit you can park ~ 1/2 mile away at the Veterans Memorial Park and ride over.
Text me at 631-988-6557 if you plan to ride with me and I will wait at the start if you're running late.

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. At these speeds Pulling is Important ! I would like to keep the road speed between 16 - 17.5 mph and come in at an average Hi 15 and Lo 16. Good stuff after the rid

It didn't rain that much ... so changed to Rocky ...First time this Fall. Will keep it short if a Beginner shows and skipping the West side regardless. I will ride as slow as the slowest rider. If no begineers call or show than figure this to be an Intermediate ride and we'll do only a few of the BDs but it won't be fast.
I don't think ticks will be a problem as the trails have gotten pretty wide since COVID kept people home and they rode more ;-). I will have spray if someone wants to use it. We aim to stay on the trail!

Whew, now that's a title. The east end ride series continues but adds a bunch of ferry rides. We meet by the parking lot in Greenport closest to the Shelter Island Ferry. We will than head to Shelter Island for some lovely riding before heading to the South Ferry, followed by lots of water views, before heading to Sag Harbor and then down to the climbs up and down Two Holes of Water and Bull Path. Then we head back to Shelter Island for some additional riding and a brief snack break on our deck, before a ride back to the North Ferry to Greenport. Overall 45 miles, with some hills, but nothing killer and most pay you back nicely. We will regularly compress at the bottom of the hills, so take them at your own pace.
The plan is is to take the ride at a touring type pace to enjoy the sights. Also, although we show-off a few Shelter Island attractions, this won't be as detailed as my Shelter Island only rides (e.g. no sculputure garden this time). No sit down lunch stop, so bring snacks, a sandwich, if you want, and plenty of hydration - especially bring an upbeat positive attitude, ready to explore and discover.

This will be a medium-paced recovery spin ride out to Riverhead. We'll keep a pace that ensures that no one gets dropped; with everyone taking a pull at the front of the paceline.
