Did it last year on my 88 DeRosa, would love to again. No ticket yet, may have to scalp one if the weathers nice.

Still learning
I did it last year and the weather was perfect. This year, I am in NJ right now due to the late Easter, and headed back to Michigan for the Ann Arbor Bike Swap on 4/27. So I did not want to do another 1200 mile RT the following week.
Maybe next year, particularly if my new friend wants to give it a try.

No 5 Borough for me, but definitely one of the Montauk rides. Any of you ride one of those? I'm leaning toward the 5BBC ride. I like to ride straight from NYC, no shuttles etc.

I went last year on my Pro Tour 15 and had a great time. I don't believe I'll be attending this year due to schedule constraints, but would be interested in other similar rides in NE if anyone has a recommendation. Enjoy the Five Boro!!
