Brief Description

The Suffolk Bicycle Riders Association (SBRA) invites you to bicycle on Long Island’s East End. Tour through the woodlands, fields, and shoreline of the North and South Forks. Take the ferry to Shelter Island. Cycle through the scenic coves and byways of beautiful Shelter Island. Whether your preference is social, scenic viewing, or fast recreational cycling, we are sure you will enjoy the tour. Bike-Boat-Bike has flat to gently rolling routes, along with some hills on Shelter Island.

Important Note (as of 5/16/2013)

Due to a recent requirement imposed by Southold Town, we are forced to limit the number of participants for this year's event. As a result, there will be NO day-of-event registration. The online registration cutoff date may be moved up as well.

Check-In Not Required

Pre-registered riders will receive all materials ( bracelet, t-shirt, cue sheets and instructions ) in the mail prior to the event. Lost t-shirts and bracelets will NOT be replaced. You will need to show your bracelet to access the parking area. When you arrive at the parking area you can just get on your bike and go.
