BLOCK ISLAND CYCLING (+HIKING)

We had a great time cycling and hiking and soaking up the island's amazing scenery.

It was nice to see familar faces and meeting new ones.

Although a bit of rain came our way on saturday it was not enough to dampen our spirits.

Thanks to Jonathan for organizing this yearly event!

Please join us for a day of cycling 15 miles around the beautiful rolling countryside of Block Island.  Most riding will be on paved roads but there are a couple of miles on dirt where larger tires might be better.  Highlights include North Lighthouse, Southeast Lighthouse, Black Rock Beach and Mohegan Bluffs.  Make a weekend out of it and book local accommodation for the nights of Friday 29 and Saturday 30 September (and Sunday night 1 October, as well, if you want to join Gary and me for a nice long weekend).  Sunday I'll lead a walk on trails of Nature Conservancy property for those who might be interested.  This trip will be co-listed with Chiltern and Sundance Outdoor Adventure Society of New York City.
