UPDATE: It looks like we will have favorable weather for the Century, and the air quality is improving! SO, the Century is a go for now, but please check the SBRA Calendar for any changes!
Any questions, or if you want to let us know you'll be riding; please leave a comment to this post!
The slogan for the day: To finish first, first you must finish!

Why settle for nothing less than the full century, the 100 miles, the big ride (Sorry Kevin), the long run! https://youtu.be/884VNMgJxpA
It's Orient Point or bust!
We'll keep an endurance pace throughout this paceline ride. We'll ride out East through Riverhead, Mattituck, Cutchogue - all along Peconic Bay. Then it's along the Sound eventually reaching Orient Beach State Park. On the return we will ride through Greenport, then to Cutchogue, Mattituck and Riverhead and back through Manorville to the finish.
There will be a couple of stops on the way out to Orient Point and on the return, so we can keep everyone together and avoid the dreaded Bonk, or even worse leg cramps! (Remember to hydrate and fuel-up at every stop, so you'll have the energy to finish the ride and not bonk!). We will have a S.A.G. vehicle with us, just in case!
The pace will be a high B/B+ outbound with a tailwind and probably slower on the return, when tired legs meet the headwinds of the North Fork.
We hope to see you on the ride!
Let's Go!
Now, if we could only find some Thunderbird for the post ride celebration!
