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: April 28, 2024 @09:00 Start: Islip LIRR Station Leader: Howard Siers Email: howardsiers@gmail.com Phone: 646-591-3414 Route Link: No route link for this ride |
Notes: I will be leading this flat, C ride mostly in the Great River area. My plan is to ride at least 15 miles but less than 20 miles. There will be no deli stop so please bring a snack. There is no bathroom stop but there are restrooms in the LIDL supermarket across from the starting point of the ride so you can use them before the start of the ride. Rain or wet pavement cancels the ride. If you will be joining me, please email your name, email address and emergency email address before 6:00 pm on the Saturday before the ride to howardsiers@gmail.com. I rode with Jimmy Mango so this ride is being done in his honor. |
