Another variation where we start out as usual but at the traffic circle in Riverhead we go south on Route 104 and make our way to the golf course road.  At the end of that road we will have our rest stop at Wildwood Lake, mile 26,  before returning.  Check out the route below so you will know when to turn, hope to see you there!

Note:  check out the ride posting Monday morning, it is supposed to be very cold, if so I may cancel

With the colder temperatures, we'll do a non-stop ride - so we won't cool-down.

The route will take us around the Manorville area, where we will visit some of the rolling hills and grades.  The route will include Mill Road and Grumman Boulevard.

So, bundle-up and pack some gels and water bottles, because we'll only be stopping for flats or regroups after the harder sections!

We will be leaving Oakdale RR and head to Bellport and returning to Oakdale for a 29 mile ride.  Our food/restroom break will be around mile 16 in Bellport.  The ride will be at a (B - pace) with an average speed of around 14.5 mph and road speeds that will reach 16 to 18 mph.

Bundle up. It will be worth it.  See you there!

Let's take advantage of the relatively milder temps forecasted for Wed and favorable SW wind.  We'll leave from the Speonk LIRR station and head east toward Montauk.  We'll ride through Westhampton and take Dune Rd to Hampton Bays.  We'll take the scenic roads through Southampton and Bridgehampton (I try to avoid Mtk Hwy as much as possible).  I'm not sure how far we'll get but I need to catch the 11:30am train from Montauk that arrives Speonk at 12:46pm.  That train makes all local stops to Speonk so we can catch it at East Hampton (11:54am), Bridgehampton (12:04pm) or Southampton (12:13pm).  Once we get back to Speonk, for those who have time, I'm planning to have a quick lunch at Little Gull Cafe.  This little gem is located in the old Speonk LIRR Ticket Office.  Park on the east side of the station near the restaurant. 

Please bring sufficient hydration/food and $$ for train ticket.  Bike permits are no longer required for the LIRR.

Please call or txt if you plan to join (347-922-3824).  If there's not enough interest I may change or cancel this ride.  Changes will be posted by 7am day of ride. 

Off to Smith Point County Park where we will take a break as we view the Atlantic Ocean.  Restrooms are available at miles 7, 15 and 19.  The Bellport lot does not have available bathrooms.  Bring snacks and water, there is a 7-11 just before the park if you want to purchase anything. To join this ride, text Bill G. @ 631-356-3036. With your full name and date of ride. Check the ride calander the day of the ride for changes, which would be posted by 7:30 am.
