    Details (RL read field instructions carefully): 

    This ride was originally scheduled for 4/2, but changed due to chances of rain. This ride is especially weather dependant, so be sure to check for changes the night before and the morning of.  To join this ride, text Bill G. at 631-356-3036 with your SBRA, emergency and cell numbers, full name, and date of ride.  We meet at the Southold RR lot, with bathrooms at a nearby Dunkin Donuts.  We ride up North for great views of the L.I. Sound, than head out East, passing some spectacular water views.  We make a quick stop at the Candyman (best chocalate in town), make a right after the Candyman and ride thru Orient.  We now head out  to the State Park, riding on a peninsula with water on both sides, till we get to the park.  Bring snacks and drinks for this stop. On our return we will stop at an historic slave cemetary, than head out for lunch at the Orient general store, which has great sandwiches, as well as picnic tables.  On our return we make a quick view stop at the Horton Hill lighthouse (lighthouse is closed for the season), than head back to our cars.  This is a long ride, so plan your day accordingly.  Note:  If I don't receive any texts, the ride is cancelled. If the weather out East is not good for riding, I will change the ride to a different location and ride start if other parts of the Island have better weather. Final changes, if needed, will be posted by 08:00am day of ride.  Ride limit is 12. Questions, text me.
