UPDATE – 12/18/15 – 4:15PM – Please check the ride calendar tomorrow morning. The ride start temp is in the low 30’s with winds in the 20’s and gusts in the 30’s. If it stays that way this ride will be cancelled. It’s supposed to be a fun ride, for me, this ride, not so much; final decision by 8AM. Thanks

We will be going to Manorville today on a little shorter route. The average pace for the ride will be between 14.8 and 15.0 mph +/- depending on the roads, wind direction, and other conditions could put the ride in the lower part of a "B". The road speed will be between 15 and 17 mph. This is a wind appropriate ride, faster when at your back and slower when the wind is at the front; unless you want to pull. Naturally, the road speed will be higher (15 -17.5 mph.) to produce the average. A rest/ food stop at McDonald’s or the bagel shop is on the schedule around mile 14. There are a few places along the route where leg stretches or a pace line can be done for those who wish.

Please check the ride calendar for any weather, or last minute cancellations which will be posted no later than 8:00AM, if necessary. My cell number is 631.484.3490; call anytime if you have questions about the ride.
