Let's leave the parking lot across from the Maples Bar, for a paceline ride heading out East. We are going to keep the pace in the B/B+ Range, so everyone can complete the distance!  Since the North Fork winds always slow the pace and make for a more difficult ride, let's forget the average and just get some miles in before the Tour of the Hamptons and other Fall events. SO, NO SURGES OR PUSHING THE PACE UP !

We are on the road to somewhere this time (Cutchogue). https://youtu.be/LQiOA7euaYA?t=35

Along the way we'll cruise along Peconic Bay and some of our favorite North Fork roads.  We'll have a stop at around 26 miles in Cutchogue at the deli. The return takes us back through Mattituck and along Peconic Bay, then through Riverhead and around Peconic Lake on South River Road, before River Road and the finish.

The weather looks good for this last day of summer, with winds coming out of the East.  So, that means a tailwind push to get us back home!

Saturday and Sunday don't look very favorable, so let's get in some distance work while we can!

Allons-y!
