Looking to keep this like a Fondo ride where we ride certain hills hard and the rest of the ride at a moderate pace.

The first hill that we ride hard is Little Flower. There will be a wait up at the end. 1.0 miles

Next up on the Fondo is Mill E Rollers. Not a hill but if you pedal hard it's a great work out. 2.55 miles

Rest stop at our Exxon Station.

Next up is the 51 challenge. Not just the hill but the entire road to 111. 4.55 miles

Last timed hill will be Ashton from East Bartlet to W Bartlet. 1.0

Again in between the hills, I want to keep a moderate pace 19-20 mph. Please check the route before you arrive or download it as I will be looking for other people to help me keep everyone together.

Any changes/cancellations will be posted by 630.

Going to shorten the ride if it goes off. The original route to the first rest stop will remain intact. We will return using Mill Road and hopefully miss the rain. 

Cancellation by 630.

Early Sayville to Babylon paceline - short break at the bagel place.  

Heading south to Smith's Pt. Beach with long S T R E T C H E S  on the way & back. A short stop at the beach. Bring a snack & plenty of hydration the concession stand won't be open. Our pace has been a consistent 18-19 average so I'm posting it up a level. Please be able to keep up considering the group. My cell 631-922-0632

Lets try this again and hope for no rain this weekend. Out to Manorville on newly paved roads! Smooth as silk for great riding.

SORRY FOLKS THE RIDE IS CANCELLED DUE TO THE WEATHER!

This time we'll launch from the usual site and head out to Briermere using the North route, encountering Mill Road along the way.  

We'll take a more southerly / flatter route, for the return.

Check for weather-related delays or cancellation, the day of the ride!  Let's hope rains don't impede our launch!

Allons-y!

NO GO - RAIN!

Come out and join me for a ride from Bellport to the Beach, where we will get to ride on part of the newly paved Old Stump Road. You may bring a snack, or pick something up on the way to the beach for our break. 

My ride leaves just before Tom's C ride, and couples doing different rides can both ride from the same location.

This is a C+/B- ride, which will average 13.3 - 13.9, depending on the wind and the riders, and there will be cue sheets.

Cell Phone Number: 631-523-2129

IT'S OUR REGULARLY SCHEDULED SATURDAY RAIN EVENT - SO NO GO!

Darlene wants me to do 23ish miles at an 10.5-11.3 average pace to Smith's Point Beach. Bring water, bring or buy a snack at 7-11 for the beach (coffee if Jerry shows up). Newbies always welcome and nobody gets left behind. Any cancellation by 8am. Granola bars and cold drinks at rides end.

Let's meet on South Cedar Street and take the Jones Beach bike path.  I'm making this a "C" pace since we'll be sharing the path with rollerbladers, walkers and families with small children on bikes. 

Changes/cancellations due to rain will be no later than 7:00 AM the day of the ride, so check back on this post.  Feel free to call/text 631-793-8298 with any questions you may have regarding the ride.

Beginner D ride at a 10 mph pace.  

We'll bike from Bayport to Bellport.  There will be a Bellport deli stop 14 miles in.  If weather is pleasant we'll have our snack at the dock; otherwise we'll stay in the deli for AC.  Please remember your helmet and your full water bottles!  Make sure that your tires are at the proper pressure BEFORE leaving your house!!  Proper pressure is embossed on side of tire.  Make sure your brakes are working before day of ride!

Come early enough to be ready for a prompt 9am departure.  Questions?  Please email me at [frchtchr@hotmail.com].  Morning of ride, my cell is 631-835-1454.  Cancellation for weather will be posted no later than 7:30am.

Update – 8/11/18 – 7:10am. Well, guess what; it looks like another wash out Saturday. I must CANCEL the ride. Hope to see you tomorrow. It will be a better day with good stuff. Bobby

It's off to Manorville. The average pace for the ride will be between 14.6 to 15.0 mph +/- depending on the roads, wind direction, rider ability or other conditions. Naturally, the road speed will be higher (15 -16.5 mph.) to produce the average. A rest/ food stop at McDonald’s or the bagel shop is on the schedule around mile 16. There are a few places along the route where leg stretches can be done for those who wish to do so. There is no obligation for anyone to do this; you can hang back with me. 

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 or text me anytime if you have questions about the ride.

Our route is on lightly traveled scenic secondary roads.

There are rolling hills on Soundview Avenue and a few steeper hills near Nassau Point.

Bring pocket food for our breaks.

Come thank Maples for the great parking!!!

If it's not raining we will go to Moriches. Speed will be 13-15mph. Check back day of for any changes by 12pm.
