NOTE:
Under the Ride Level details, the "Type: Road Bike" refers to the ride will be on paved roads (rather then off road trails). Although a Road Bike is suggested for Road Bike Type rides it is not required. Hybrid and mountain bikes can be used on these rides as well provided you are comfortable with the pace outline in the Posted Ride. This ride calendar is for club rides, club meetings, club event posts and shop rides only.
For Other Events in our area and off Long Island check out the "Other Rides & Events calendar" and the "Forums"

This is an RSVP ride.  I can only take 6 additional people on this ride due to the carry-on-bicycle limitations on the NYC Ferry.

As of now...  only 4 spots remain open.

Here's the plan....

Roosevelt Island
59th Street Bridge
Central Park
NYC Ferry from UWS to Wall Street
South Street Seaport
Battery Park
Brooklyn Bridge
Brooklyn Piers
Prospect Park
kosciuszko Bridge
Pulaski Bridge
Gantry Plaza State Park

The riding route is about 35 miles with about 1000 ft of elevation (plus 7 leisurely miles on the ferry). A 35 mile city ride with stops for sightseeing and photos can be a longer day than you might expect.  I hope to be back at the cars by 3pm. Here's a link to the route:

Bring snacks and gels. We make stops fairly often, plus there will be an official rest stop somewhere along the way.

Obviously… not your typical "club ride". It's more like a day-long adventure ride.  I'm very selective about the roads/paths I choose. Most will have a designated bike lane. A few will not.  Some bicycle paths will have bumpy segments.  I prefer to use my back-up "rain" road bike with 28mm tires.

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

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

If you need an address for your GPS to find the start location, then use 42-25 Vernon Blvd, Queens, NY 11101

Feel free to text me with your questions or concerns.
