    Lets celebrate the LAST (UNOFFICIAL) WEEKEND OF SUMMER, with a stop at the Ice palace for Italian ice at the end of our ride. They have a quaint little courtyard with tables, as well as being located on the corner of Vanderbilt Blvd, making this a perfect ending to our "Vanderbilt Tour."  If there is anyone not interested in going to the Ice Palace, I will lead you back to our starting point just down the road.

    Join me for this scenic C- ride, cruising speed will be 10-11, slower in the mews. No one gets dropped.  

    We will ride around the scenic roads of Oakdale, a unique community steeped in Vanderbilt History.  Shortly after crossing a wooden footbridge, we'll be taking our break on the riverside steps of Idle Hour, the former William K. Vanderbilt Estate. Unfortunately, it is the now defunct Dowling College and falling into disrepair. Continuing with the theme of Vanderbilt history we will be heading into the mews, also once part of the Vanderbilt Estate. The mews is such a fascinating pocket of History & Architecture that we will be sure to ride each and every road. Please bring water, spare tube, and a snack if you wish, to enjoy riverside.
