MPBC Ride Leaders post official club rides to this calendar on a weekly basis throughout the year. To sign up for a ride, please provide the leader your mobile number and emergency contact using the email and/or phone number listed in the posting. Riders must be MPBC club members to attend a posted or a Show & Go ride but we are allowing one free ride for potential members. If you would like to join MBPC you can do so by using our online form found here.
Typical rides are held (Tue/Thu/Sat/Sun & Holidays) at 8:30 am in the warmer months and 9 am in the cooler months. Ride times do vary, so please check our ride calendar for actual start times.

| Notes: Join me on another 3-4 mile hike in the Sunken Meadows State Park, starting from Parking Field 1 at 10:30am. We’ll walk along the boardwalk, then take the trail to Kings Park Bluff, past an old cemetery, and return along another trail that provides great views of the Long Island Sound. This route is moderately difficult with a few hilly spots. Be sure to bring water or another drink. Restrooms are available by the main park office. RSVP suggested, not required. A PDF map of the trails is available from the website address attached. |
