This is number 5 of the SEAGULL CENTURY training rides. You DO NOT have to be doing the century to go on any of these rides. The ride will be about 56 miles. Last week we did a half century, we should all be proud of ourselves; great job; let’s keep up the good work. Today’s route will be similar to ride #3 taking us to Eastport, Remsenburg, Westhampton Beach, and points east using Dune Road. If the wind is in the wrong direction we will take the inland route for the comfort off all; probably returning via Dune road. The average pace for this ride will be between 14.9 & 15.3 mph (you’ve done it before) +/-, depending on the wind and other factors which could change the average. The road speed will be 15-17.5 mph to produce the average. Around mile 28 or so there will be a food/pee stop at Tully’s (if they are open for clam chowder) or the Green Door, or save you appetite for the next stop which is the Beach Bakery. There will be about a 10 mile leg stretch for those who desire.

Be sure you bring water and something with electrolytes in it. I’m still working on the final route which will only change the total mileage a wee bit one way or the other; promise. Supplies after the ride; could be! Cheese and crackers maybe.

Please check the ride calendar for any weather, or last minute cancellations which will be posted no later than 7:00AM if necessary. My cell number is 631.484.3490; call anytime if you have questions about this ride. Next weeks ride will be on Sunday and the START Time will be 8AM
