There is a new boardwalk across the road from the preserve that has three different lovely paths.  Total walk time is about 15 minutes, so bring a a pair of light sneakers or tongs, so you don't have to be uncomfortable in your bike shoes.  If you have a bike lock, bring it, otherwise,  I have 3 locks to share.   There will be a bathroom stop at mile 9, another at the preserve, and a snack stop at the Westhampton Bakery.  For info: contact Bill G. at 631-356-3036.  Check the ride calendar the day of the ride for changes, which would be posted by 07:15am.  Strong winds could slow our pace, and possibly reduce our mileage.
