Sorry, John. I will be out late Saturday and a 10:00 start will allow me a modicum of sleep.
There should be bail points if you need to bypass the Manhattan re-entry.

Date: Sunday, June 5 - B15-16/65+ miles
Leader: Neile Weissman
Meets: 10:00 AM at 23rd Street & First Avenue
A somewhat different route to Oceanside; then south to Long Beach; west to Atlantic and Rockaway Beaches. Finally, we improvise our way up the bottom and left side of Brooklyn. Ride ends at the Brooklyn side of the Manhattan Bridge.
No great hills to speak of, though proximity to the ocean could provide headwinds. Bring the usual plus a Metro North/LIRR pass in case you need to bail. We'll look for a lunch break around Long Beach.
This will be something of a scouting ride, so expect stops for map checking, ice cream, etc.

Neile- What's your expected arrival time to the Brooklyn side and which bridge will you be taking over? Would like to meet up with you all in Bklyn.

We'll be taking the Williamsburg Bridge.
If you're in the area right by the Brooklyn bike path entrance at 10:15AM, we should be there shortly thereafter.
Thanks.
