Due to unseen circumstances, the date is changed to October 19th.
We ride the flat south shore of Long Island and take an extremely indirect, scenic, fun meandering route to Heckscher State Park that includes a bunch of turns and dead ends by water The ride back is much straighter and on more active roads. We will utilize a picnic area at Hecksher for a short picnic lunch break.
The ride starts at 10:00 to avoid most rush hour traffic heading west. .
Please bring your lunch, snacks and sufficient hydration, as it is very unlikely that we will stop to pick up food. Be sure to have snacks, since we won't get to picnic in Hecksher until late in the ride. Also bring an upbeat attitude ready to explore.
The ride starts at the Babylon LIRR station. There is metered parking at the station and free parking close to the station.
To join the ride or if you have questions, please text Bill Mastro at 917-921-5358. Any updates or weather issues will be posted to the ride listing by 7:30on the day of the ride.
