Wow!
The last time we had this many riders, it was 23 years ago! (or at Herb's last great party!)
Present and accounted for were: Jeff B, Paul, Amos, Alan, Joe, Charlie, Andy, John, Jane, Harold, Isaac, Jeff K and rising from the ashes like a Phoenix, Steve!
13 NSW in all.
Everyone was present at 7:30 at Wheatley and the south service road. (Thanks for being on time)
After virtually no discussion (John was not there - we really we miss him and hope to see him soon - knee permitting) we decided to go out the service road to Round Swamp, to Old Country Road to Sweet Hollow Road through West Hills County Park.
Harold mentioned that it all seemed all uphill and I think he was correct!
At the top of Sweet Hollow Road we made a left onto Chichester Road. This road was an up and down. We were passed several times - this is when John left us! (He had to get back at Sands Point Golf Club for work by 11 AM!)
At the end of Chichester we made a right onto Hartmann Hill Road to Jericho Turnpike. Across Jericho to Cold Spring Hills Road to Woodbury to the Deli.
Then the switchback to the bumpy to the campus the long way.
Total 48 miles and home by 11 AM!
Perfect temperature, we rode as a group - GREAT RIDE!
Next Sunday:
Jeff B, Charlie and Alan are doing the Mansion Ride for Autism. Those who are going should plan to meet at the Syosset train station by 7 AM. The ride starts at 7:45 AM and if you are planning on doing the metric century you want to start as early as possible.
Here is a link to the ride: http://www.mansionrideforautism.com/ride_details.html
Let the group know if you are doing the mansion ride so that we do not wait for you at Wheatley!
Those of you that are not doing the mansion ride, regular starting: 7 AM at Lakeville and Northern, 7:30 AM at Wheatley and the service road.
Again it is OK to be 5 minutes early.
See everyone next Sunday.
For the High Council:
