Let's all meet at Black Star Bakery & Café, 2-10 50th Ave., Queens, Long Island City, NY 11101. There, we can grab a light breakfast while we wait for the group to form. The two-minute bike check will begin promptly at 9:30 a.m., and we will depart at 9:32 a.m. Please sign up to let us know you are interested. The ride will be just under 52 miles long, and we will move at a quick pace given the distance we have to cover.
