This ride has been delayed until Wednesday due to how much precipation we got on Sunday & Monday. Remember to check back to this posting before leaving for the ride.

BSP has a good single track for Begineers and Intermediate riders. With the strong winds we have had there may be some clearing work to be done as we ride. First time here this season so we'll not be pushing the pace and do waitups at the fire road crossings. No one gets left behind in the woods!

We'll head north from the parking lot entrance and swing around to the south upto Rt25.

No need to arrive 20 minutes early and cook in the car or freeze outside ... Please just be ready to ride at the posted start time! Running late? Call my cell # below and we'll wait a bit.

Check back to this posting a Life Happens and Things Change!

Note the DIFFERENT Ride Start on Rt. 112!

Slight chance of light snow is forecast ... we'll adjust the route based upon the precip as it's no fun rolling across wet logs!! 

Also, the Class of this ride may be adjusted to Multi-Level  if faster riders commit to showing I'll be changing the Classification and I'll be riding slower.

We won't be doing the entire trail but we'll definitely do the Rock Garden (there's an easy go around if you want to skip) and Wild Turkey loop  ... we'll include BD#4 (Wish You Were Here) with the offset downhill logs. 

If you're a Begineer or Intermediate rider then come along anyway ... CLIMB designed Overton with a main loop with the Black Diamonds as loops off the Main (Blue) trail ... you can always do a wait up.

The trail is pretty wide and ticks will not be a problem unless you dive into the bush ... Also, I will have bug spray available before the ride if you ask for it. Hopefully the Rt112 metal crusher and Mill Rd. compost machines will be quite ;-).

Check back to this posting early Friday morning ... as Life Happens and Things Change.

Also, NO need to arrive 20 minutes early and over heat in the car or freeze outside ... just arrive in time to get ready to leave at the posted Start Time.

It will be cold at the start so please dress appropriately, you will warmup while riding ... hand warmers are suggested for better control.

Lots of folks avoid East Setauket as it has a good deal of technical and hilly sections BUT there are also milder single track sections that many riders can handle when keeping the speed down. Come along and I will be more than willing to wait if you want to walk any section that you feel is above you pay grade!

Lots of the trail is pretty wide and ticks will not be a problem unless you dive into the bush ... Also, I will have bug spray available before the ride. 

For faster and more skilled riders please look at the ride level ... IF a faster rider contacts me I will modify the Ride Classification to Multi-Level ... Otherwise you will be out ahead of the group I lead that will go at the slowest rider's pace.  No one will be left behind in the woods!

Let's beat the rain ... we'll do everything as we head north towards the tanks ... If you want to skip the initial alley-oops and meet up at the top of the hill then let me know so we can be on the look out for you.

I am planning to be out at the start by 9 AM and expecting to ride ... riding the trail will be slower dependant on the ground cover in specific areas. If I find the trail un-ridable I will head west to Brookhaven State Park on Wlm Floyd and ride the trail there.

This ride may be cancelled due to the rain but note that the Ride Start has been delayed to 9:10 as Ron's ride will be starting at 9:15 and they WILL catch us ... hopefully we make it to Terrapin Rock before they do!

I've attached the CLIMB map which I annotated with a grid and trail section names ... we'll be doing the Blue trail ... if you print out the map please let me know if it's wothwhile. 

 Also, Best to park in the second lot as there's a lot more room. It won't be that cold but the wind will be whipp'n on the open parking lot so no need to arrive 20 minutes early and cook in the car or freeze waiting to ride ... just be there in time to start at the posted Ride Start time.

Sorry...

The Ride Start will be on Belle Meade on the east of side of the road after the storage business. 

This has been posted as a B ride as I'm tired from Manorville Hills ... I will ride as fast as the slowest rider and depending on who shows do the Intermediate and less technical trail.

Regardless where we ride ... it will be colder than today and there may be a bit of light snow at the end of the ride ... beautiful on the trail!
