This a preride of the SBRA cares event. We will be parking at the Yaphank firehouse instead of Southaven County Park. I have ridden about 80% of the route so far, I need to check the last 20% to make sure that it is all clear. Please bear in mind, you are along for the ride to scope things out, there might be some obstacles that are unexpected. I will be going at a slocial pace. Please ride what you are comfortable with, when in doubt, please walk. I am using wide tires, there is sand, single track, double track, dirt, rocks, and pavement. There are a couple of stream crossings in Southaven, but you should not get wet. Mountain, Gravel and Fat Bikes are perfect for this ride, road bikes are not, You will struggle on a few sections with a cross bike.
We will be riding on lots of multi-use trails, we will be considerate of others.
Please take tick precautions, use whatever works for you, bring a spare tube, be sure to have water and a snack or two. No official rest stop, but will stop when needed.
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask.
