    Details (RL read field instructions carefully): 

    I am posting this ride to see if there is any interest.  You MUST contact me if you are interested in doing this ride (347-922-3824).  If there is no interest, I may cancel or modify the ride.

    The plan is to bike to Montauk from the Blue Point Brewery in Patchogue one-way and take the LIRR back home.  Trains depart Montauk at 3:16pm and 5:19pm.  There is also a 7:42pm for anyone interested in having dinner in Montauk (lights are required if taking this train because LIRR station is about 1/2 mile from BPB parking lot and it will be dark out).  

    I suggest riders bring two water bottles, some energy snacks for the ride and extra $$ for rest stops/lunch/train fare).  We will make hydration/rest stops approximately every 20-25 miles.  Depending on when we arrive in Montauk (and what shape we're in when we get there - lol) we can discuss options.  Extend ride out to lighthouse and make it a Century, sit-down lunch in town, grab deli sandwich and eat on train, etc.

    Pls note that the LIRR has the right to limit the number of bikes they allow on each train (there are NO guarantees); however, I’ve done this ride many times and never had a problem.
