Brooklyn & Jamaica Bay - Recap
Sunday, December 13, 2020 - Recap
9 Landmark Districts & The Beach!
41 miles (or less w/ π)
Sunday, December 13, 2020
The goal of this ride is to do a loop around Jamaica Bay with a start/finish in downtown Brooklyn. We'll be going through NINE landmarked neighborhoods, Prospect Park, the new(ish) Shirley Chisholm State Park, and then looping around Jamaica Bay β going through Broad Channel, and hitting the boardwalk in the Rockaways.Β

Here's the route w/ cuesheet and download optionsβ¦

Β
There are a fair number subway options along the route in case you don't want to do the full 40 miles.Β
Β
I haven't ridden much in Brooklyn, so this is a bit of an exploratory ride for me. Anyone with experience riding in the area, please let me know your thoughts.Β
Β
In particular much of the trails in Shirley Chisolm Park are gravel, but my understanding is that there's a paved road going to the dock. So we may split briefly and regroup at the entrance/exit.Β
Β
In terms of weather, other than the small chance of rain, it looks like it will be overcast with temps in the high 40s to low 50s.Β
