Sunday October 16th
Rain date: Sunday October 30th
Time to mark your calendars for the 5th Annual Triple Crown!!!!
Come on down to ride Glacier Ridge, Rocky Point and Cathedral Pines all in the same day!!
This is not a race, but a friendly gathering of folks from home and abroad joining forces to put in some saddle time and experience 3 of our trails here on the island. If you are racing the 6 Hours of CP race this November, this is great training and for the "out of towners" it is a great way to familiarize your self with Cathedral Pines.
You have plenty of options on this ride and riders of all abilities are encouraged to come have some fun..........
There will be a group, led by me, that will meet at CP lower lot at 7:00am and ride the road over to GR, do the loop, then on to RP, do the loop and finally back to CP to complete the loop there. Finally, we will head to the Mill House in Yaphank for lunch and refreshments.
The other riders will form sub groups and ride at whatever pace they like and drive from trail to trail and the end of each loop. Baked Bean will be leading the caravan of cars to each trail.
The rules of the day are that we will meet at each trailhead and not begin the loop until all riders are present. Once a trail is completed we will wait in the lot for all riders to finish up, at which time the "road riders" will move on to the next trail. The "driving riders" will meet us at the next trail and so on.
We will be providing fruit, cookies, and water at each trailhead at the beginning and end of each loop. There is no charge to participate. Why.... because we like you
Here is a loose itinerary for the day:
645am: Road Riders meet at CP lower lot
700am: Depart CP on bikes and head to GR
730am: Loop at GR with entire group
945am: Depart from GR and head to RP
1015am: Loop at RP
1215pm: Depart RP and head to CP
1245pm: Loop at CP
200pm: Mill House
Of course these times are a guess and by no means should be taken as cut offs. All riders will be given ample time to finish their loops.
Rain cancels this event, as does rain from the previous night.
