We are all looking for ways to show support for Ukraine at this time.

On a ride earlier this season we paused in front of the UN and made two salutes - a positive one for Ukraine and a negative one for Russia.

We will be heading out for Ukrainian food, to Veselka, a very popular Ukrainian restaurant in the East Village area known as "Little Ukraine". They have a take-out menu available on line here - we will take everyone's order at ride start, and place it, so we can take out and picnic nearby weather permitting. PLEASE BE AT GRAND ARMY PLAZA BY 9:45AM IF YOU WANT TO BE PART OF ADVANCED ORDER AND HAVE SUFFICIENT CASH ON HAND TO PREPAY. We roll at 10am sharp and you can find us with the cue attached below if you arrive late. WE WILL BE ROLLING SHARP AT 10AM!

We will also explore the Brooklyn Bridge new bike lane.

NEW INFORMATION: There is a solidarity rally happening in Bowling Green at 12:30pm so we will route the ride after our early lunch in order to be there on time if we can. 

Start point is changed to Grand Army Plaza.  https://ridewithgps.com/routes/38848173
