Summary
Please join us for a day of cycling 15 miles around the beautiful rolling countryside of Block Island. Most riding will be on paved roads but there are a couple of miles on dirt where larger tires would be better. Highlights include North Lighthouse, Southeast Lighthouse, Black Rock Beach and Mohegan Bluffs. Make a weekend out of it and book local accommodation for Friday and Saturday night (and Sunday night, as well, if you want to join Gary and me for a long weekend). Sunday I'll lead a walk on trails of Nature Conservancy property for those who might me interested.
Directions To Trailhead Parking Lot
For daytrippers, please get yourselves to Point Judith/Galilee RI by 8:30AM in time to park your car and get tix for the 9AM departure ferry to Block Island. We'll meet in a small park to the right above the Old Harbor loading area after the boat docks. I'll have a pride flag draped from my bicycle. For those weekenders already on the island please meet us at this spot by 10:30AM. We'll then go get lunches and head out on our adventure.
