    Details (RL read field instructions carefully): 

    Similiar route to sbra cares ruff stuff with some exploration as well. Mixed surface ride, pavement, dirt, sand, and some gravel too. Wanted to check out some areas in Coram and by the Longwood Estate. Wide tires are a must I would say at least 35mm to be comfortable. Come with an open mind and be willing to something new. I recommend either flat pedals or mtb pedals. There are some hike-a-bike sections. Pace will be civil, cruising pace on the road will be about 17 mph, on the trails and other surfaces, whatever you are comfortable with.

    No official ride rest stop, so please bring adequate food and water.

    Make sure to apply your favorite tick repellent.

    Any questions, feel free to ask
