Details (RL read field instructions carefully): 

Join me for a big loop around Queens.  The route is about 40 miles with about 1100 ft of elevation. 

The route features:

Flushing Promenade
Astoria Park
Roosevelt Island
Gantry Plaza State Park
A short leg into Brooklyn
World's Fair Grounds
Kissena Velodrome
Kissena Park Bike Path
Vanderbilt Motor Pkwy Bike Path
Cross Island Parkway Bike Path

Here's a link to the route:  2024 Tour of Queens

A 40 mile city ride with stops for food, sightseeing and photos can be a longer day than you might expect. I hope to be back at the cars by 3pm.

Bring snacks and gels. There will be a bagel stop in Long Island City around the 20 mile mark. 

Obviously… not your typical "club ride". This will be much more of a "tour ride". I'm very selective about the roads/paths I choose. Many will have a designated bike lane... a few might not.... but on the brightside... there are no bridges.  Of all the city rides I put together, I think this one feels the most adventurous.

This is a B/B+ ride ... not so much for the speed, but for the general confident bike handling skills required to navigate a variety of advanced cycling situations. 

This is an RSVP ride.  Contact me (text) in advance if you plan to come. Provide me with your SBRA Member # and I'll sign you in.

Sorry for the change in plans ...

NO wind in the woods! Lots of Mtn Bikers have gotten their start here ... Ticks will NOT be a problem as the trails have gotten pretty wide since COVID kept people home and they rode more ;-). I will have spray if someone wants to use it. Stay on the trail and you'll have no problem!

I will ride as slow as the slowest rider. If no begineers call or show than figure this to be an Intermediate ride and we'll do most of the BDs but it won't be fast.

This venue requires a DEC parking permit (haven't seen anyone being checked for a long time though). Easy to obtain a permit here: https://www.sbraweb.org/node/6490 .

If you don't have a permit you can park ~ 1/2 mile away at the Veterans Memorial Park and ride over.

Text me at 631-988-6557 if you plan to ride with me and I will wait at the start if you're running late.

 Check back to this posting before leaving for the ride as Life Happens and Things Change.
