happy summer solstice

at the campground the night before the 2010 North Fork Century

A little shout out to SUMMER - yeah! In honor of this most wonderful day (+ season) -- a couple photos from one of my favorite seasonal activities: century rides. I snapped these (before and after) last summer's annual North Fork Century which begins in Greenport, Long Island (where you can camp ♥ out the night before) and winds through vineyards and alongside sandy beaches ♥  ♥ ♥

at a rest stop, which served us the most amazing slices of fresh out of the oven pies

my friend Sara post ride - who doesn't love a ride that ends at a Brewery + w/ an ice cream truck
