Summer Bike Rides

We had a great ride on Friday from West Meadow Beach to Cedar Beach and back. Aman, Chris B., and I started in the Stony Brook area and picked up Noto in East Setauket, Ben B. in Port Jeff, and Ben N. in Mt. Sinai along the ride. Went swimming at Cedar Beach and barbecued in Old Field when we got back. Good Times!

Hopefully there will be some photos to post shortly.

If you have suggestions for bike rides this summer, email fwcoord AT gmail DOT com or post your ideas here in the comments.

In the meantime enjoy this pleasant video about a family bike picnic!

Freewheel Party, Ride, Picnic

Freewheel has now existed as a club at Stony Brook University since the fall of 2005. To celebrate the passage of another academic year, let’s plan to make a group ride somewhere and stop for a picnic along the way. A couple of good sites for picnic include Short Beach, Long Beach, and West Meadow Beach. There are picnic tables at each of these sites and the ride to these locations are fun and scenic.

The best time to do this might be after finals, but before too many people have left for the summer. I would propose the latter part of graduation weekend: Sunday, May 25. Does this work for anyone?
