I tend to be long winded so please click "read more" on the bottom for the entire post. - This Saturday we’re going to Ridge again since everyone enjoyed the ride last week. It's a nice route with some good roads, and of course, some with pot holes, but what else is new.

The average pace for the ride will be between 14.5 and 15mph., depending on wind conditions, and other factors we might be just a tad over 15; nothing new here. Naturally the road speed will be slightly higher to produce the average.

Around mile 18 or so we’ll make a pit stop; you can go to Mickey D’s or the deli. Maybe the umbrellas will be out. Then there will be few long spots where one can stretch the legs if desired, working off any extra calories collected at the rest stop.

My cell number is 631.484.3490; call anytime if you have questions about this ride or need directions to the start. Always check the ride calendar for any weather, or last minute cancellations which will be posted no later than 7:45AM if necessary.
