Sunday Gravel Ride -- Black Rock Forest: Redemption (64 miles, 6000'; 50 mile "bailout" option)
FYI: I just posted a new ride to the GrNY (Gravel NY) group on Strava for this Sunday, May 30. For folks in the NYC area who are willing to take a bit of a drive or train ride, we will be leaving from Garrison, NY for a 64 miler (with 50 mile "bailout" option if you run out of steam). The link for the Strava event is below. I've included some photos from the last time I did this ride. I'll keep the Strava event updated with any changes to route or time.

If you are interested in future rides, feel free to join the Strava club (I'm an admin). If you don't have an active Strava profile that suggests regular riding at decent distances (but you *do* ride regularly), send me an email, so I can look for your request to join the GrNY group on Strava. https://www.strava.com/clubs/GrNY

About the group:
Gravel NY (GrNY) is an informal club for gravel riding in the New York metro area. Rides typically involve a combination of dirt and paved surfaces, since it is difficult to string together continuous unpaved routes in our area. The basic idea is to get away from cars and seek gravel where we can find it.
Join us for rides that emphasize:
- Fun exploration
- Non-competitive atmosphere
- No dress code (whether lycra, MTB baggies, or flannel)
- Some members enjoy challenging rides, but the goal is the experience, not the speed or stats.
- Pacelining is discouraged, unless you know your ride partner well
