Setting up an introductory MTB Ride for a few New Road Riders that have recently purchased MTB's. There will be a few extra stops to ReGroup and Roll. There will be teaching moments along with Q&A time. This ride is mainly driven to focus on riders of Group A- or better on the Road. 

If you have Questions please feel free to contact me. All experience MTB'ers are welcome to Join the ride. More support the Better.

Thanks in advance

Dave

***With a likelyhood of rain late Thursday night into the ride start Friday morning, the ride is moved to Sunday morning..

I'm posting a B ride to give more SBRA members a chance to get a ride in as few on this level have been available lately. Also a chance for those like  myself who plan on joining other rides this weekend not to burn ourselves out.

Paceline ride everyone  stays together. Waitups or slowdowns for those that fall behind.

Any questions please feel free to contact me.

For this Flat ride the Average speed is 11.5-12.5mph depending on riders, wind, tide, position of moon and leaders disposition with a distance of 18-23 miles. Nobody gets left behind and newbies always welcome and well taken care of. Any cancellation will be before 8:30am. No need to text me.

Park in south side lot across from RR station.

Weather forecast calls for sunny skies, 5-10 mph winds :)  We'll meet in the overflow lot across from the train station - we'll ride to the deli in Bellport.  We might add a few extra miles, but that'll be determined the day of the ride.  We'll stay within the c+/b- pace, probably finish at the upper c+ pace.  No one is ever left behind.  Please be sure your bike is road ready - pack hydration and snacks - the deli will be optional so please plan accordingly.

Changes/cancellations will be posted prior to 7:30am the morning of the ride.

Feel free to text me at 631-521-0688 if you have questions regarding this post.

Today's’ route to Great River will change up a bit towards the end of the ride - if the wind is in our favor; making this route pretty flat except for 2 overpasses. We will go the usual route heading south using the Connetquot Park bike bath. We’ll work our way down to Heckscher Park .I would like to keep the road speed  between 16 - 17 mph and come in at an average 14 and 14.9. Its still cold out there and alot of riders have not been riding. Pulls always appreciated.
