Space available: 15 people, e.g. 11 cyclists, 4 guests

Transportation: self-contained
Lodging: Cabins, dorm rooms and tenting
Trip Rating: A
Mileage: Hard, 50 each way with some very steep hills
Leaders: Richard Sanford and Manny Sanudo

Note: We have added an option to allow friends of the cyclists to join the trip! The price is the same. The only catch is that you have to arrange your own transportation to/from the camp, e.g. car pool or train. 

Our host for this adventure-filled weekend is rustic Camp Thendara, a 90-year-old mountaintop lodge on Lake Tiorati in Harriman State Park. Cyclists will do 50 hilly miles from midtown Manhattan on Saturday, going “self-contained,” meaning we’ll carry all our gear on our bikes. A rear rack and panniers to carry your gear are required. Sunday offers a variety of options: swimming, boating, hiking, biking in the park, or just relaxing. Two home-cooked breakfasts, two dinners and two trail lunches are all included in the price. Guests at Camp Thendara prepare their meals together and perform light clean-up chores. On Monday, we will bike home via a different route, with plenty of quiet back roads. 

All participants must be 5BBC members.

Early-Bird Price: $155 through April 30. Standard Price: $175 . Price includes breakfasts and dinners at the hostel, which we will prepare ourselves, plus one trail meal. A rear rack and panniers to carry your gear are required. Please note that we do not have SAG vehicles or an easy non-cycling return. Cyclists will need to bring adequate rain gear.
