Friday

There will be a Sunset/Moonlight ride on the East Bay Bike Path on Friday 7/27/18.

Date: Friday 7/27/18.

Location:  EBBP off Rt 103 near Del’s Lemonade.  65 Child St, Warren, RI

Time:

Arrive: 7:15PM

Departure: 7:30PM promptly

Sunset: 8:08PM

Moon rise:  8:10PM

Distance is flexible.

As the moon rise is immediately after sunset it should be a perfect night for moonlight riding.

Rain cancels the ride.

We will ride to Bristol to enjoy the sunset in Colt’s State Park.  We will then return to the parking lot.  That’s around 8-10 miles.  Those who wish to will continue toward Providence till we decide to turn around.

Turn around point will probably be India Point Park unless we decide to turn around sooner (or later).

That’s around 30 or 32 miles round trip.

Other routes are also possible.

Bikes should have adequate lighting.

If you have a second headlight as a backup that might come in handy if the first one goes out.

Bring water, snacks, cameras and anything else you might want or need.

Helmets are highly recommended.

Take note that it is cooler after sunset and dress accordingly.
