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.

Date: March 12, 2024 @09:15 Start: Borella Field Leader: Paul Santoro Email: pjsroadndirtrider@gmail.com Phone: 516-225-4044 Route Link: https://www.strava.com/activities/10538592601 |
| Notes: Let’s leave Borella at 9:15 sharp and head north through Cold Spring Harbor and stopping at Caumsett Park for a bathroom break. We will likely do at least 2 laps in the park to add some miles. The distance between Borella and Caumsett is only about 14 miles so we will be looking for places to add miles to get us at least to 40 miles and perhaps to 50 miles. Returning from Caumsett we may ride beyond Plainview and head south going around the Bethpage SP golf coarse. We will follow a route similar, but NOT identical to the one I posted. We will cruise in the high teens and low 20s and regroup as needed. Bring a snack and water. Text me (516 225 4044) if you plan to join us. |
