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.
For Other Events in our area and off Long Island check out the "Other Rides & Events calendar" and the "Forums"

Weather Update Plans AS of Wdd 5:30 PM... We Gotta Respect the Trail!!
The current forecasts (two sources) show that there is 65-95% chance of rain and/or light snow for 6-8 hours late tonight/early tomorrow morning. My current plan is to watch the radar reports, and if the precip here in PJS is not too intense, to drive out there tomorrow for an 8:30 ride start otherwise I will cancel and reschedule my ride for Sat AM.

I will endeavor to arrive at the trail head at 8 AM ... if the ride is not cancelled there will be no change on this posting. If you want an immediate update around 8 AM ... just send an email to me before tomorrow 7 AM and I will include you in an email blast.

I don't have my studded tires mounted yet and I'm sure I wouldn't need them regardless ...

Look forward to riding in the woods with ya'll

First time in the woods this season for me so this should be an easy workout for anyone who's been there already. If this is the first time for you also ... no worries ... I'm not an advanced rider and my personal rule is No one left behind in the woods. The temp at 8:30 AM should be about 36F w/wind chill at 30F ... should prove to be a nice day.

You should have an up to date DEC parking and access permit. You can now get these permits online at: http://www.dec.ny.gov/docs/regions_pdf/newaccessprmt.pdf. To get the permit OPEN the .pdf, fill it out and Submit it then print it out and sign it. When you get the followup email from the DEC office you will know that you're successfully registers.

You'll be in the woods so be prepared with a map of Calverton from CLIMB:
http://www.climbonline.org/pdf/calverton_8X11_05-18-08.pdf ... thanks CLIMB for the trail and the map!

Hope the change to this date and time did not cause a problem for you.

Please check back to this posting before driving out to Calverton as things in life tend change. Latest weather forecast as of Wed. 5 pm forecasts some precip late Thursday night. Calverton is one of the faster drying venues so I may just delay the ride. Check posting after 7 AM on Friday. Call my cell if you're running late ... not necessary to take risks on the road.
