The trip report

Ride/hike in AM, breaking for lunch followed by ride/hike/swim and unexpected animal farm visit in pm. Block Island has really changed in 30 years! Wow! Charming. Really nice assortment of restuarants still open. Planning to return next year. Hope Jon will lead us again! Really nice job! Great homemade hummus too! Thank you Jon for your efforts. Much Appreciated!

About this event

Please join me for a day of cycling 15 miles around the beautiful rolling countryside of Block Island. Most riding will be on paved roads but there could be short sections on dirt roads where larger tires might be better. Highlights include North Lighthouse, Southeast Lighthouse, Vail Beach and Mohegan Bluffs. Make a weekend out of it and book local accommodation for the nights of Friday 25 and Saturday 26 September (and Sunday night 27 September, as well, if you want to join me for a nice long weekend). Sunday I'll lead a walk on trails at Clay Head for those who stay the weekend and might be interested in a bike/hike event. As of this writing, Block Island is open, subject to CDC guidelines. I'll be checking back with the manager at the Island Manor Resort after Labor Day for any updates/changes to the situation there.
