Haitian lunch and Circo's Italian Pastries for Dessert
Saturday, April 15, 2023 - 10:00

Join us as we ride through Brooklyn heading to Grandchamps Haitian Restaurant.  Their specialty is Griot (fried pork that is marinated and slow roasted until tender).  They also have a variety of other food options: chicken, fish and vegetarian.  Here is a link to their website (click on Bed Stuy menu) http://www.grandchamps.nyc/

This 21 mile ride at Moderate pace (12-15 mph on flat terrain with no traffic lights) will take us through several Brooklyn neighborhoods including "Little Haiti" before heading into Bed-Stuy.  After lunch we will plan to ride to Circo's Pastry Shop in Bushwick.  Lunch is two-thirds into the ride, around mile 17 so bring a snack.

Make sure your bike is in good mechanical working order.  Please bring your mask, helmet, lock, spare tube, sunscreen, hydration, hand sanitizer, hearty appetite and good attitude.
