This past Saturday I set my sails and embarked on an organized ride to Montauk. It's a mere 140 miles from Penn Station without calculating the ride over and back from there. It's very good to speak of this in the past tense. The ride was mostly pretty beautiful so not many complaints from me, but unfortunately it didn't go so smooth for other. For example for Sasha or Justin who were going for the 66 mile ride. You can read on Sasha's blog about their mishaps. As for mine, there were two big ones: I got lost and was looking for the continuation for a long LONG while, added at least an hour to my ride (figure another 10-20 miles) and for getting run over by an inexperienced rider. She just kept turning and turning and turning. No injuries are damage to my ride so it ain't so bad. Other then not ever taking this guy's ride again Montauk is really beautiful and hopefully we will return shortly with friends, taking the train out to Babylon and riding about 100 miles to get to enjoy the beach and other stuff.
