We'll do the Intermediate trail including Mogul 2 and add some of the hills we've been skipping ... definitely do Switch-a-Roo and an introduction to the WALL ... we'll leave Hell Hill for another time. Depending on how much precip we get early Thursday the venue may change.

Looking to keep the group together on this ride. The usual wait up spots. Bring what you need as the main stop is closed. Please check out the route before you arrive. Last time this route was done at a 20 + average at a steady pace.

exact route and mileage will be determined on the road you will not be dropped

A short ittle ride to Bean & Bagel, probably low end of C+/B-. The break is at mile 14 for coffee. Any changes by 9:00am

This will be an easy C ride.  My road bike is in for repairs, so I am using an older bike which will insure my slower C pace. For info: contact Bill Gravitz at 631-356-3036.  Check the ride calendar the day of the ride for any changes, which would be posted by 08:30am.

Thunderbirds are go for launch; we have a good weather window!  Just note the start time and pace; we'll start a little later this week and drop the pace down. I'll be taking it a little easier today, as I have to save some energy for the rest of the weekend! 

This will be a paceline ride, but this week we'll do a little flatter run to keep everyone together. Fear not, there will be a few places where the faster T-Birds can stretch their wings, but afterwards we all regroup and ride together! So, if you have been thinking about trying on some wings, (Red Bull is not necessary), this is your chance. 

Allons-y!
