Memorial Day Weekend Trip for Cyclists and Their Friends!
We will start this adventure-filled weekend on Saturday. Cyclists will do 50 hilly miles from midtown Manhattan to rustic Camp Thendara, a 90-year-old mountaintop lodge on Lake Tiorati in Harriman State Park. We'll carry all our gear on our bikes. Sunday offers a variety of options: swimming, boating, hiking, biking in the park, or just relaxing. Two home-cooked breakfasts, two dinners, along with one trail lunch on Sunday afternoon, are all included in the price. Guests at Camp Thendara prepare their meals together and perform light clean-up chores. On Monday, we will bike home via a different route, with plenty of quiet back roads. Note: We've added an option to allow family and friends of the cyclists to join the trip! The price is the same for non-cyclists; the only catch is that you have to arrange your own transportation to/from the camp, e.g. car pool or train. All participants must be 5bbc members.
Price: $150 until 11:59 pm, May 17 when registration closes Price includes breakfasts and dinners at the hostel, which we will prepare ourselves, plus one trail meal. A rear rack and panniers to carry your gear are required. Please note that we do not have SAG vehicles or an easy non-cycling return. Cyclists will need to bring adequate rain gear.
