Our destination for this ride is Dar525, a Middle Eastern/Mediterranean restaurant that is part of the 5BBC restaurant club, but we haven’t been to for a while. This Moderate (12+ mph on flat terrain) ride will take a meandering route to Greenpoint. We will traverse many neighborhoods in Brooklyn and Queens: Crown Heights, Brownsville, Bushwick, Ridgewood, Maspeth and Sunnyside before arriving at Dar525 in Greenpoint.
Lunch will be late in the ride, at Mile 14.8. Please bring snacks to fortify you at the mid-morning rest stop. You have been warned to bring pocket food to keep your tummy happy until lunch.
Please bring a lock, hydration and a spare tube. Make sure your bike is in good working condition before leaving home in the morning.
This ride is limited to 8 riders with 2 leaders because of the limited seating capacity at the restaurant.
