Update – 5/5/18 - 9:45PM - Rain is predicted around noon so I have cut down the ride to around 22 miles. Hopefully this will keep us from getting wet! If there are any other changes they will be made ay the ride start. If the rain holds off we will do the 30 miles as planed.
Today’s route to Great River will change up a bit towards the end of the ride, if the wind is in our favor; making this route pretty flat except for 2 overpasses. We will go the usual route heading south using the Connetquot Park bike bath. We’ll work our way down to Heckscher Park, do a loop where one can stretch the legs a bit if desired.
The average pace for this ride will be between 14.5 & 15.0 mph, or what conditions allow. The road speed will be between 15 and 16.5 mph, or slower if needed for safety concerns.
We’ll be making a rest stop around mile 19 at the deli/bakery. The route back will be determined by the wind direction. Good Stuff after the Ride. Not sure what good stuff; it's always a surprise.
Any cancellations due to unforeseeable circumstances, or weather related problems will be posted by 7:45am. If you have any questions about this ride, or the start location, please call or text my cell, 631-484-3490.
