Riverhead to Cutchogue #3 and "Sophia's Choice"

Saturday, Memeorial Day weekend an opportunity to ride 3 consequetive days. More importantly our ride leader received an e-mail from Sophia Loren promising to join the ride. At 9:30 AM about 19 Sophia Loren groupies gathered with their bicycles at the Riverhead Town Marina, many whom would remember Sophia Loren. But by 10:00 AM the group was ready to leave "Sophia-less". As we started off everyone quietly acknowledged "Sophia's Choice" was Carlo and not our ride leader.
The complete set of photos are here.

"Fashionable" post ride snack

One ride leader, in order to get more people to join his ride, added "dinner at a fashionable restuarant", Here's my "fashionable" lunch at a unfashionable dining establishment "Home."

Riverhead to Cutchogue, #2

The first time this season riding 2 days back to back. I had anticipated the second day to be tough. However with unexpected headwind of 15-20 mph from the west the ride back was miserable. I stopped to give my legs a needed break. It was low tide and walking onto a sand bar I took this shot. I suddenly had a craving for a Conch (Scungilli) Salad.

Bayview Farms in Aquebogue. One of the many bountiful Farms along the main Road in the North Fork. A good place for bicyclists to stop for roasted corn, home made pie, apple cider or lemonade.

I Woke up early to get a short ride in before work. I was doubly rewarded for my efforts.
