Going to Manorville today. A rest/ food stop at McDonald’s or the bagel shop is on the schedule between mile 16 and 20. There are a few places along the route for a break-a-way for those who wish to do so. Pulling is always appreciated for those who want to help, but not required.
The average pace for the ride will be between 14.8 to 14.9 mph +/- depending on the roads, wind direction, rider ability, tailwinds, downhill's, break-a-ways and other conditions.All of these conditions could change the final average one way or the other. Naturally, the road speed will be higher (14.5 to 17.0 mph.) to produce the average. We might add a mile or two depending on the route and the current conditions the day of the ride.
Any cancellation due to weather or any other circumstance will be posted no later than 0730 if necessary. If you have question about the ride just text me at 631.484.3490. Eventually my phone and I will meet in a reasonable amount of time...
This is a paceline ride through Manorville. I am looking to do 17mph. Please check for cancellation by 7am if it looks like rain. We will have a break at MacDonalds.
Please please text me By 1pm Wednesday if you plan to ride. I hate to Cancel rides or show up and Nobody shows. I get it, It's hard to commit for an afternoon ride and I will ride with one other person. Im really trying to build a group that can ride. I also posted as an A-/B+ dropping pace to accommodate more riders. Nobody gets dropped and will allow for a few break always. We could add a few miles before Maples to drive miles up closer to 40 miles.
This will be a B- ride. Expect an average between 14.9 and 15.0 Depending on many conditions this ride could come it a tad higher. In order to get this average the road speeds will be between 15.0 and 17.0 mph. Going downhill, or with the wind at your back will be faster. The main objective is to finish the ride without being too concerned about the average. The average will depend mainly on the wind, the hills, and who shows up. We will stay together and there will be one or two break-a-ways for those who want. We will take a break at the Beach and a rest stop at Wertheim about mile 10. Pulls would be appreciated.
After the ride Eduardo has invited us in for some GOOD Stuff.
If you have any questions, or concerns please text me at 631.484.3490. Should there be a cancelation, or change it will be posted by 7:15am.
