Time: Wheels up at 10:30 AM

Meet at the Ranger Station Parking lot 195 Cranberry Rd. Carver, MA

52F Sunny at ride start will make this a beautiful day to ride the trails, quiet back and abandoned roads, of this magnificent state forest..

We will stop at College Pond briefly for a snack or lunch. (bring your own)

This route is designed for 13 miles but we can add or subtract.

There will be a Sunset/Moonlight ride on the East Bay Bike Path on Friday 11/4/22.   

The full moon is actually on Tuesday 11/8/22.  Because Moonrise is at 4:04 PM we will get to see the moon for the entire ride.   

Because we are returning to Standard time this is the last ride to include sunset as part of the ride this year. 

The Details:

Date: Friday 11/4/22. 

Location:  EBBP off Rt 103 near Del’s Lemonade. 

Set your GPS to 65 Child St. Warren R.I.

Time: 

Arrive: 4:45PM 

Departure: 5:00PM promptly 

Sunset: 5:36PM

Moonrise:  4:04PM

Name:  The Full Beaver Moon. 

The Beaver Moon will be on Tuesday, November 8 at 6:02 a.m. Eastern.

November’s Full Moon is also called the Frost Moon and the Snow Moon.

This year, the Full Beaver Moon features yet another total lunar eclipse, which will be at its peak at 5:59 a.m. Eastern on the same morning.

Distance is flexible. 

Rain or high winds cancels the ride. 

We will ride to Bristol to enjoy the sunset at Colt’s State Park.  We will then return to the parking lot. 

That’s around 10 miles.  Those who wish to, will continue toward Providence till we decide to turn around. 

Turn around point could be as far as 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 it might come in handy if the first one goes out. 

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

This is a crazy good cover
