We offer an optional escorted version of the 66-mile route.
Trained leaders will ride at the front and back of your group to cheer you on and help you conquer the ride.
If you would rather do the 66 on your own, that's great! If you want to do the escorted version of the ride, no need to tell us in advance -- just register as usual.
The regular 66-mile riders can start pedaling any time they want after morning check in. If you want to do the escorted version of the ride, we’ll leave Greenport at 8:00 a.m. sharp, which means that you need to get there earlier to check in and get some breakfast.
(If you are taking our OPTIONAL transportation from Manhattan to the Greenport, NY start line, you WILL arrive in time to meet up with the escorted group).
Sometimes people start the day with the escorted group and then decide they would rather break away and ride on their own, and that's fine.
NOTE: Our leaders are here to help the escorted riders have a great day of riding, but your bike and you must be ready for a 66-mile ride -- we can't help you with that on ride day!
