Hello, and welcome to the Official NY Group Ride(s) Thread.

This thread has been created so that we can get group rides together for the upcoming riding reason. It doesn't matter what bike you ride. You're more than welcome to come along. I also invite NJ riders as well. The details have not been decided yet, but keep an eye on this thread for updated information. Any updated information will be edited into my OP. I rather the NJ riders come meet the NY riders in NY as if this was a NJ Group Ride, than of course we would come to NJ, but I feel Long Island has some decent roads to ride on, and just all around a good state to ride in, especially Long Island.

The Southern State is very smooth so that would be fun, and the SS has a lot of bends so it would be fun. We could also stop for lunch somewhere, and then ride again. Simply reply to this thread if you're down, and as it gets closer and closer, I'll update my OP with all the information we gather from the thread as it grows.

IMO, you'd be better off going just north of the city right after the Sloatsburg rest area on I-87 and riding in Central Valley...I've been to LI many times for business and I don't see much exciting there as far as bike riding goes.

The area I'm talking about is maybe 15 minutes from the GSP exit as it merges with NYST and about the same from Rt. 17 in Ramsey, NJ.

Thinking of going to bear mountain on saturday, supposed to be 38 degrees so it shouldnt be bad. Never been there before but was looking through some videos on youtube and it looks amazing. If anyone else wants to go just post here.

You already know, count me in. Muilisk, as stated by you in ur other post, when it is time to meet up, I would like your partner to work on my bike. I have no problem paying. Will PM you when the time comes.

Also, if everyone is going to meet in NY, especially the New Jersey riders, the next meet, we can meet in New Jersey.

I'll let him know that you would like some stuff done so we can plan a ride over there when we meet up.

Well, I'm not too sure I would want to ride into AC. The drivers driving around there near the stores and casinos are CRAZY. Plus, the roads leaving and coming into NY are totally F'ed UP! Unless there's another way to get there without riding all over those roads, I won't take the bike.

I might be down, but it suppose to rain also. I rode yesterday and I am going to ride today. It is a bit chilly today, but I am going to suck it up.

Michale V, give details for the ride that might go down Saturday. Muilisx,I saw in one of your current post that you might ride Saturday. Let us know if you are down?

The weather forecast states it is only going to rain in the AM, so late AM early PM it should be good to ride. It is going to be a bit windy, 22 mph, but that shouldn't be to bad.

Alright what time do you want to meet there? I think we should meet at the end area there with the parking spaces. If anyone else wants to come, just post here.

I think we should wait until later this evening just to verify if anyone else's is coming so we all can agree on a desired time. I personally would like to get there in the afternoon, since I have other responsibilities to attend to in the morning. Is there an actually number address to this location, since I will be using my GPS to guide me there?

I will for sure when we do our ride. I'm not sure if I'm taking her out tomorrow but the warmer weather is among us, and we'll definitely be riding for SURE. I guess I'll lead on the Island, and you can lead in NJ since I know here, and you know there, but we'll figure it out. I want to do more than just one ride of course. I would like to get together for rides at least once a week. :p

The Norovirus attacked me last night. Not fun, woke up every 45 min to throw up, and shit water. I had the worst night of my life. It's not fun throwing up a 100% empty stomach over and over again, tasting stomach acid. Every single time I coughed, my body would start regurgitation, and I would have to run to the bathroom. Shittest night ever.
