Update -0710 -The Ride Is Cancelled. It Is Going To Drizzle All Morning
This ride will take us around the Holbrook area, and then up to Ronkonkoma before turning around, heading south, back to Holbrook. At the end of the ride we can all go for coffee and a bagel and chat as usual, if you want. One rolling, and 2 downhill's to a flat. Up hills - let's call it an overpass and a short upgrade. The ride could be a mile longer. No worries, I know you can do it! Remember the bagel waits for you!
Any cancellation due to weather or any other circumstance will be posted no later than 0715 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...
The average pace for the ride will be between 14.9 to 15.0 mph +/- depending on the roads, wind direction, rider ability, tailwinds, downhills, 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 (15 -17 mph.) to produce the average.
If you are a rider who wants to step up from a C+/B- I would suggest that you – 1. Have been able to ride with at least a 14 to 14.5 average. Remember, my rides come in at 15 +/-. Look up my ride averages. You will be doing roads speeds between 15-17 mph. 2. Most important ask your C+/B- ride leader if he/she thinks this move up is for you. Naturally, if you have a problem I will help you along the way.
