THURSDAY LATE MORNING UPDATE:  Although there is a possibility that the rain will be gone this evening, it does seem that the weather will still be quite unpleasant for a Lights Ride, damp and very windy.  Combine that with a sweep who is not feeling great, a few registered riders who have already indicated they will not attend, and the smart decision is to cancel.   See you Sunday for the polar bear plunge  

WEDNESDAY MORNING UPDATE:  Well it seems once again weather may be playing havoc with a lights ride.  The forecast for the ride tomorrow, Thursday, is rain and very windy. Yuk. So, please check back.  We will continue to check weather updates.  As of now there is a chance the rain will clear out but we may face some significant wind.  If that happens, we may do a shorter variation of the ride utilizing a subway bailout after the highlights.  It is a wait and watch at this point; more updates on Thursday morning. 

Named one of Bicycle Magazine’s Eight Great Holiday Day Rides, the Hollydays’ Lights ride is back again this year and we are holding the ride once again on two different dates, pre- and post-Christmas.  This is the post-Christmas version.  Layer up and come join us for a Christmas week ride through parts of western Brooklyn to check out the holiday lights. We will ride at a leisurely pace to lighting displays in Bay Ridge, Dyker Heights and Bensonhurst. Midway we'll stop in Bay Ridge for a chance to get a holiday treat, hot chocolate or perhaps a slice from Nino's. Bring lock and money for food. Helmets are required and all bikes must have both front and rear lights.  Also, please wear bright or reflective clothing. Ride ends when we return to Prospect Park.
