We will respect the heat by doing a short 15 mile ride.  It won't take much to work up a sweat, so we will take it at heat-wave pace through a few Brooklyn neighborhoods as we make it to Grandchamps, a Haitian restaurant in Bed-Stuy, which we have visited before.  If we feel up for it, we will stop for ice cream at The Social, in Prospect Heights near the end of the ride.

Please bring a bike in good working condition.  Make sure your bike has properly inflated tires before leaving for the ride.  Bring a spare tube, sunscreen, sanitizer and a water bottle.
