This route will be similar to Bobby's (HCC-Patchogue) with a few of my twists and turns. Depending on the weather and the group, I can increase or decrease the mileage by a few. Average will be an easy B-. Stopping at McD's for a break.
From Veteran's park we will head to McDonald's in Manorville for our break at about the mid-point of the ride. If the winds are strong, we may put more mileage on the Grummann trails in lieu of the roads. For info: contact Bill G. at 631-356-3036. Check the ride calendar for changes, which would be posted by 07:45am day of ride.
THIS RIDE HAS BEEN CHANGED FROM MONDAY, APRIL 1, TO THURSDAY, APRIL 4, DUE TO 18 TO 20MPH WINDS; GUSTING TO 30MPH. AND TO ADD INSULT TO INJURY, WIND CHILLS WILL BE 30 - 38 DEGREES. THURSDAY LOOKS MUCH BETTER.
The objective of this ride is to get lemon scones. For those of you that haven’t had lemon scones at Main Road Biscuit in Jamesport, pucker-up. We will be stopping there 32 miles into the ride. If you don’t like lemon scones, they also have muffins, biscuits, and cookies. I think they use organic sugar—healthy! Don’t worry about getting fat, it’s why I made the ride 56 miles. And to ensure proper digestion, we will keep the ride steady; between 18 and 20 mph, with an ideal cruising speed of 19 mph. Although we will make a speed exception for the “tanks,” where there’s always a tail wind. So come out and enjoy some sweets, with a side of aerobic endurance.
We will be leaving Bank of America and head to Great River and East Islip for a 22/24 mile ride. The ride will be at a B- pace with an average speed of around 14.5 to 15mph and road speeds that will reach 16 to 18mph.
Changes or cancelation will be posted by 1:30pm day of ride.
