As many of you are aware Edwin Sanchez is running a cycling club out of Longwood and could use our help. What he is asking for is to look at anything you have that revolves around cycling and haven't used in a while. Gloves, helmets, jackets, old wheels, what every you have. He will be on Saturday's ride and I will be cleaning out the things I don't use. Please help out what ever you can.

This is a great cause and even if you can't ride drop something of at Car Hart on Saturday morning and I will make sure he gets it. 

Thank you in advance.

A fun moderate last paceline ride to Briermere Farms, before they close for the season. 

Kick-off the holiday season with a new tradition: a Thunderbird ride out to Briermere to enjoy some treats and friends. We'll visit Mill Road on the way out, and the rolling terrain that includes Deep Hole on the way back.

Never ridden with the Thunderbirds, before?  Come along on this ride, where everyone will keep their talons to themselves :) .

Happy Holidays and Allons-y!

Update – 12/22/18 – 7:30am…The wind is suppose to be between 20 and 23 mph starting around 9am. Therefore I am cancelling the ride. I will see you tomorrow; it will be a better day. Thanks

NOTE: Should it be too cold, or too windy the ride will be canceled, moved, or changed

This will be a nice ride around the Holbrook area. The average pace for this ride will be between 14.0 & 15.0 mph; naturally the road speed will be higher to produce the average. At the end of the ride we can all go for coffee and a bagel or, we can go to the bakery for coffee and something sweet.

 Any cancellation due to weather or any other circumstance will be posted no later than 8:00am if necessary. If you have question about the ride or the start location please call or text me 631.484.3490…

Friday nite update:  will give the roads a bit more time in the a.m. to drain/dry off with daylight.   Start time is now 10:15am.   Any other changes will be posted by 9:00am tomorrow

__________________________. 

We'll travel scenic backroads thru the Stonybrook-Setauket area.  For those familiar with the Wed Nite Roller Coaster, this will be some of that route but we'll start by heading up Lower Sheep Pasture and come out over near Poquott.  Will pick up the route in Setauket with a shortened loop in Strong's Neck, then on to Old Field and West Meadow.  There are hills, so the pace indicates that...and places to stretch your legs out ahead, wait ups after climbs.  But please note this is not a "race ride".   Soup or Green Cactus is an option for lunch after, if there is interest. 

Brings snacks/water as our break will be on the route in Old Field and West Meadow.  Bathrooms in Setauket if needed and at West Meadow (port-o-potty).

Check back here by 8:30am for updates.
