Friday, we’ll be doing Joan’s Breakfast Ride.  The ride will start at LONGBRANCH PARK (park on the west side of the bridge, not at the boathouse).  The cue says the stop in Skaneateles is mandatory.  We usually stop at La Patisserie for some great treats and an obligatory picture.  They always seem to enjoy seeing us.  So if you can’t stop, you’ll be missing out, but you can still have a great ride.  Plus be aware, we usually come back a different way on the return route eliminating 321.&n ...Continue Reading

Thank you to all who offered advice – it was most appreciated – I ended up riding a couple of different road bikes – the CAAD8, Allez and the Diverge and I ended up settling on the Specialized Diverge A1 – I liked the way it felt and didn’t mind the 30mm tires – I did ride the Erie Canal trail this evening in Dewitt and once I left the paved area into the crushed gravel I could see the Diverge being a little easier to ride on that surface… The decision was made a little easier because I do also have an older Canno ...Continue Reading
