August 1999 Rides
August 23-27: The 14 annual Paris-Brest-Paris Randonnee
August 18: After work ride up to Ridefield and down Rt. 33. Rode down 33 very strong.
August 15: Tour of the Hamptons Century. Rode it in 6 1/2 hours with some "Early Bird" riders and my father. We had several flats. Kind of rainy out in the beginning and overcast all day - perfect weather for a bike ride!
August 14: Rode around LI - up to Coram, over to Yaphank then Manorville and into Bellport. Ominous clouds hovered above but I beat the rain.
August 8: Rode up to Ridgefield and down Rt. 33
August 7: Rode up to Ridgefield and down Rt. 33.
August 2: SBRA early bird ride. Again we went out to Hampton Bays. I only made it as far as the Ponquoge bridge where I banged up my front wheel and knee in a shifting misshap. Got a good ride in, however. Very hot and soggy out.
August 1: Down on LI. Rode out to Bald Hill, over to Yaphand, out to Manorville, then down into Bellport. Nice day out. Still very humid though. Camelbak to the rescue.
Total mileage for month - 1383.2 miles
