I’m doing the NYC tri then am taking the following week off. The wife and I are thinking about spending in in the Hamptoms–my brother has a place in Sag Harbor. How’s the riding out there? Any good spots for OW swimming (other than the Atlantic)? I guess I can run just about anywhere. Any tips would be appreciated.
I’m originally from Sag Harbor. Great place to train during the warmer months. For open water swimming try Noyac Bay or Havens Beach. Ask anyone in town how to get to either one. For running, try the yellow trail off of Route 114, about 3 miles outside of town toward East Hampton. The trailhead is a little hard to spot, but there are generally a few cars there. This is also a good mountain bike trail. For a road ride try Sag Harbor to Montauk via 114 and Highway 27(not a real highway east of Southampton). Talk to the folks in Bike Hampton on Main St. in Sag Harbor, they know all the trails and have a number of good group rides on and off rode. Have Fun.
