NOTE:
Under the Ride Level details, the "Type: Road Bike" refers to the ride will be on paved roads (rather then off road trails). Although a Road Bike is suggested for Road Bike Type rides it is not required. Hybrid and mountain bikes can be used on these rides as well provided you are comfortable with the pace outline in the Posted Ride. This ride calendar is for club rides, club meetings, club event posts and shop rides only.
For Other Events in our area and off Long Island check out the "Other Rides & Events calendar" and the "Forums"

So, it's going to be chilly, eh!  So, it's going to be like Canada, so welcome to The Great White North!   https://youtu.be/OJE3EgTGg9k

OK,  the plan is to ride non-stop and get in some miles without freezing. We'll leave the parking lot at the Veteran's Memorial Park, and we'll either head to the Thunderdrome in the old Grumman property, or do a couple of loops of the 9.3 mile bike path.  Either way, we'll be close enough to the start that if we feel cold, we can just circle back and end the ride.

The Thunderdrome is the infamous one mile Thunderbird training loop in the industrial park that includes a little hill, an S-turn and some old concrete runway. The perfect loop for a criterium or a training ride...   The alternative ride is a couple of laps of the 9.3 mile bike path around the Grumman property.   Either way, keep an eye-out for road conditions and other riders: we don't want any accidents!

Allons-y!
