Join us for a quick jaunt from Cunningham Park to (Shirley) Chisholm Park. The route is 28ish miles with less than 800 feet elevation at a cruising speed of 15 on the flats. To minimize using drops day-trippers should be comfortable cycling for long stretches at a time and closing any gaps that are not traffic-related so that we ride as a group. Bio and food breaks will occur in Shirley Chisholm Park at approx. mile 15. Along with the usual bike stuff you will need to bring snacks, hydration, and or lunch since there will not be an official lunch stop. This ride is noted as advanced moderate not for the pace but because of the bike handling skills required. We will be traversing bike lanes and routes along busy city streets. There is a very steep hill decline (16% grade) along the way, some sharp turns, and an area where we might have to dismount our bikes to enter the park. Please only experienced riders should register.
