The
sun finally shone of the Friends of Connetquot
annual fun ride. After several years of less than
perfect weather we had a great day May 2nd.
Gil Bergen and his dedicated, but sparse staff at
Connetquot River Preserve cleaned the barn, set up
our tables and had all the trails cleared despite
last month’s Nor’easter. 300 trees fell in the
preserve but you’d never know it to ride the miles
of trails. The jewel of Long Island’s trail riding
was as bright as ever. We had over 50 people
pre-registered and about 50 more showed up on a
marvelous day.
