The rain held off tonight, and it turned into a perfect evening for one of Time’s Up’s monthly “Moonlight Rides” through Prospect Park.
If you’ve never done one of these (they have one in Central Park each month too!), you MUST try it out. The Prospect Park ride is always the second Saturday of every month — even in the winter!
Our leader, Jonathan, took us through some of the park’s nooks and crannies, and on paths that led to a waterfall, a dog beach, and several great waterfront lookout spots — places I never knew existed from my usual spins around the loop.
Fun fact that I learned: When workers first filled the big lake at the southern end of the park with water after they built it over a century ago, they neglected to seal the lake bed — so all the water drained out!
Here are a few photos I took from tonight’s ride:



Thank you 5 Boro Bike Club (@5bbc) and all your volunteers for a fantastic Montauk Century today!
