    Join me for this scenic Almost flat C- ride, cruising speed will be around 10-11mph.

    This is more of a tour than a typical club ride. We will be stopping to enjoy the view along the way.

    This ride is for seasoned riders who are Extremely comfortable riding on roads without shoulders.

    We will be starting from Northport Village Park, Cruise parallel to Northport Harbor on historic Bayview Ave. Then ride through what was until 1968, the Steers Sand and Gravel Company AKA "the Pit," now a quiet bayside  community of private homes and condos. We will then head out to Asharoken along the narrow causeway for a few miles. Along Asharoken ave to our left will be  Northport Bay and to our Right Long Island Sound and Connecticut. We will then head to Bevin rd with its wonderfully restored Historic Victorian Bevin mansion along with many architecturally interesting homes. On our return trip we will retrace our route  with further exploration of "The Pit."

    There are bathrooms at the start and finish and at Asharoken town beach.

    Upon our return to Northport Village we will stop at Copenhagen Bakery for a snack to enjoy harbor side.
