The new firehouse sprint. 39 miles of fun pushing hard to finish above 21mph. I'm posting this as an A+ in hopes to come in higher than 21. There will be a group stop at mile 25 Grumman Jets. Pedal to the metal sprint down to Grumman Blvd with a short ReGroup. Please pay attention to Weather as I may Delay till 9:30am.

Text me by Thursday Night if you plan to ride. Also, A+ riders or Higher are welcome to join the fun so we can test our abilities against faster riders. I will add Riders signed up to this post!

No Rider limit.

This is a B+ ride however we will be bringing it back down to a true B+ which is between a 17 and 17.9 Average..taking it down for the colder days..Most likely will be mid 17 average.

*** the route has been change due to the contruction on Halsey and Mill. We will add the mileage to the back end of the route. No Mill or Halsey or Silas Carter today..

The roads in several places are horrible so the usual route will be modified to avoid them. 

B pace to a rest stop at McDs in Manorville.

Gulp and goes.

Pulls appreciated.

Calverton is one of the best begineer trails on Long Island, even the Black Diamonds (BD) are only Intermediate level. As a begineer there's only one BD that I might lead you down if you are so inclinded (it's really a decline ;-). If no Beginneers show than this will be an Intermediate ride.

This venue requires a DEC parking permit (haven't seen anyone being checked for a long time though). Easy to obtain a permit here: https://www.sbraweb.org/node/6490

If you don't have a permit you can park ~ 1/2 mile away at the Veterans Memorial Park and ride over.

Text me at 631-988-6557 if you plan to ride with me and I will wait at the start if you're running late.

Check back to this posting before leaving for the ride as Life Happens and Things Change.

I am having a knee issue so Marie will lead this ride for me. Hope to see you soon!

Park in the overflow lot south of the RR station. We will likely go west a bit to Oakdale then come back for our stop at the Blue Point Library. Easy pace. Mileage around 20. Check back here for any changes which would be posted by 7 am. Text me with any questions. It would be nice to know if you are joining me but not mandatory.
