Saturday September 12, 2026 9:30 AM until 4:00 PM.
This is the third listing of a ride that started in 2024 and everyone raved about BOCA.
Our “Get out of Town” series takes us through Westchester County in NY and Fairfield County in CT, ending in Bridgeport with lunch at BOCA (https://www.bocaoysterbar.com/menus.php). After lunch, we take Metro North home from the Bridgeport station.
Please note, this is a moderate ride. We would list this as an ADVANCED MODERATE ride, but unfortunately there is not a listing for such a ride. Please be aware that you should be able to keep a pace of 14-15 mph on level terrain.
This is a 43 mile point-to-point ride, meaning we start and end the ride in different locations. However, on the return (by train) drivers can get off in Port Chester where we started the ride.
This ride will be led by Mark Guralnick and Frank Caputzal.
We are limiting capacity for this ride to a total of 12 because we prefer riding as a group, with limited point-drop-sweep.
There will be a rest stop/bathroom break at mile 23 at the SoNo mall. This will be your opportunity to buy something to eat or munch on since it will be 20 miles to lunch.
There is an 8:36 AM Metro North train out of Grand Central getting to Port Chester at 9:28 AM. Please make your way around to the southbound (train travel) side where we will start the ride. Please note, there is an elevator at the south end of the station. For those driving, please park in the parking lot that is located on the southbound (train travel) side and be ready to ride when the train folks arrive.
Please bring good cheer and a bike in good working order. Please make sure your tires are properly inflated, bring a spare tube, sunscreen, water and snacks to keep you fortified. As always, a properly fitted helmet is required.
If you are unable to attend the ride, please "unregister" in a timely fashion so that those on the waitlist can move up and take the spot.
Lastly, if you sign up for the waitlist and receive a waitlist notification, you must open the email and register for the ride using the link provided in the email. The system does not automatically bump you up to the ride if a spot becomes available
