UPDATE: RIDE IS A GO!
The weather looks good through around 1:00 PM or so!. So it looks good for completing the full distance!
Some of us will be riding with tired legs, so the average will be at the lower end of the B+ range or perhaps even down into the B/B+ zone if it gets very windy!-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It looks like this will be a mild day for December! So join the Thunderbirds for a rockin' down the highway https://youtu.be/kTZbSNOptd0 paceline ride !
We will leave from the lot across from The Maples, and we'll use the north route to reach Dune Road - which is practically deserted! Along the way, we'll paceline along County Road (CR) 24 and 104; do the climb up CR 31 past the airport and hit Dune Road. On Dune Road, you're free to ride at your own pace, but save some legs for the return!
After a short stop at Cupsogue Beach at the end oif Dune Road, we'll start our return with an optional stop at the Beach Bakery. Then it's Old Country Road, Head of the Neck, Chapman, South St. and the finishing run up Silas Carter/ Ryerson.
Allons-y!
