***Update – Saturday - 1/17/2015 – 2:00PM - Ride TIME CHANGED to 9AM. I am trying to get the ride in before it rains. The ride could be shortened to around 22 miles to adjust for the coming rain; if it happens. We can make this assessment during the ride. As of now there is nothing on the radar*** How about taking a ride to Great River today? We will go the usual route through Connetquot Park and then do a loop in Heckscher Park where one can stretch the legs a bit. The route is mostly flat with 2 little hills; maybe 3. The average pace for this ride will be between 14.0 & 15.0 mph, depending on the wind and other road conditions. If it's too cold the distance will be adjusted according to the group vote. The road speed will be 15-17 mph to produce the average. We will be making a deli/rest stop somewhere between miles 18 and 20. After the ride cookies and eggnog I think. My cell number is 631.484.3490; call anytime if you have questions about this ride or need directions to the start. Please check the ride calendar for any weather, or last minute cancellations which will be posted no later than 8:00AM if necessary.
