This ride was a 5BBC mainstay led by Liz and Ed who have since left NYC.  Queens to Hicksville is revived with some route improvements.  We will ride hard on the Horace Harding East for 15 miles before a ‘nature’ and catch our breath break at Cantiague Park.  Riding quiet back roads to the Broadway Mall, we will have our choice of takeout food:  1)organic Panera  2)LeBron Blaze Pizza  3)politically incorrect real chicken Chick Fil’A.  Back to Cantiague Park to eat in peace, safely spaced under the shaded 2 Blue Pavilions.  Return to Cunningham is riding IU Willets and the Vanderbilt.  There will be some shunts or bypasses that you may have never ridden.  My surprise!

This is a 35 mile suburban street ride averaging 12mph with 800 ft of elevation.

Exact start location, RWG, map/cue to be emailed 3 days before the ride.  All riders should come equipped with a mask, hand sanitizer, a spare tube, sunscreen, snacks, hydration, and a bike in good condition.   

Important:  Please ‘unregister’ in a timely manner if you can no longer make the ride.  This will allow others on the waitlist to participate.  Please do not register if you do not intend to ride the complete route.  This action would deprive a fellow member the opportunity to ride the enitre route.
