Prospect Park Laps
14 - 20 miles
Sunday, March 26, 2023
This approximately 20 mile route (6 laps) route features a picturesque, even in winter, 3.35 mile loop that runs along the interior perimeter. It's always car-free and has a dedicated bike lane at all times. Prospect Park is a great spot for intervals, since it's full of smooth corners (not a sharp turn in sight) and only one hill that's easily a big-ring style climb. This casual but still rigorous ride can be great for anyone looking to get in some training miles as we head into Spring.
The group will meet at Grand Army Plaza (more specifically The Soldiers' and Sailors' Arch), the oval at the main entrance of Brooklyn’s Prospect Park, which was meant to provide a wide and picturesque approach to the park, by park designer Calvert Vaux (1824–1895). who also designed Eastern Parkway with his partner Frederick Law Olmsted (1822–1903).
We often stop to get a coffee and snack afterwards on Vanderbilt Ave!
Return to Manahttan via subway, or by cycling back over the Brooklyn, Manhattan or Williamsburg Bridge.
Meet: at 11:45 am sharp at The Soldiers' and Sailors' Arch, 20 Grand Army Plaza, Brooklyn, NY 11238
Note: inclement weather and temperature below 40 degress reschedules to a later date
