"Oceanside Run
B15-16 65 miles
Leader: Neile Weissman

Start: Sunday, 5/1 -- 09:00 AM at 23rd Street & First Avenue

Over the river and through the nabes to Oceanside we go. We take uncommon Brooklyn/Queens streets en route to a parking lot picnic at the local Trader Joes. If you want to shop, bring panniers or a backpack, but be prepared to pedal your ass off keeping up with the extra weight. Alternately, you could bail via LIRR or ten miles later at the Rockways via the ""A"" train. Will adjust route if weather threatens.

Ride will end at the Manhattan side of the Manhattan Bridge. To those who finish, I will reveal the location of my favorite chinese fast-food-hole-in-the-wall supplier of greasy delights.

Bring the usual plus a LIRR pass and check the boards for last minute updates.
