    The Thunderbirds are back, now that the great paceline ban is over!  So we'll start posting on the SBRA Calendar again and see how it goes...https://youtu.be/Ikw_dSB12QQ

    So let's meet at the South Street School at 9:00 AM for a flat to lightly rolling route to Hampton Bays, where we'll have a short stop at roughly half the distance.  The plan is to keep everyone together and work together as a team, so no one gets dropped!  Also, short of buying water, etc. or hitting the bathroom, we'll stay outside to minimize our exposure to the Virus. (Remember to bring a mask, for when you are indoors at the stop).

    Now for the yada yada, in addition to SBRA's:

    This is a paceline ride, so be comfortable when riding in a group.

    You should be able to ride in a straight line - no weaving around.

    You should be able to pedal continuously ->  no pedal-pedal-coooast, pedal-pedal-coooast! Also, there aren't many traffic lights, so get ready for long periods of pedaling!

    You should be comfortable when being occasionally passed on the right, depending on conditions (you do drive on the LIE?).

    No hijacking the ride and pushing the pace up!

    Allons-y!
