The C-STS Training Series is a non instructional ride series for experienced cyclists with good group riding skills beginning Sunday March 19th and continuing for 8 weeks through May 21st (no ride April 16th - Easter Sunday). Experienced riders who have not participated in a SIG should contact Karla Bonne the C-ride coordinator prior to registering. The goals of the series is to get fit, make new riding friends, experience new routes and ride safely. Each week we will progressively increase the speed, distance and more challenging terrain. Ending , if everyone is up to it, a century ride to Montauk with not as challenging terrain. Because this is a progressive series, participants must register in advance. No new riders will be allowed to join after the third ride. The total participation is 30 Riders (2 groups) so please sign up as soon as website allows!

On early, shorter rides we will not take a lunch break, (it’s too cold!) so bring pocket food.
