I tend to be long winded so click "read more" on the bottom for the entire post.- How about taking a ride to Great River today? We will go the usual route through Connetquot Park and then do a loop in Heckscher Park where one can stretch the legs a bit; this is not a pace line. The route is mostly flat with 2 little hills. The average pace for this ride will be between 14.5. & 15.0 mph; naturally the road speed will be slightly higher to produce the average. However, we will slow down for humidity and squirrels. We will be making a food/rest stop around Mile 20. Bring a chair and supplies if you want for the end of ride repair clinic.

Please check the ride calendar for any weather, or last minute cancellations which will be posted no later than 7:30AM if necessary. My cell number is 631.484.3490; call anytime if you have questions about this ride or need directions to the start.
