Snow melting. Roads calling.

This short captures the first Bikes, Books & Brunch ride of 2026 — a local North Fork ride that happened to fall on International Women’s Day, making it the perfect opportunity to support a few incredible women-owned businesses in the community.

The ride began at A Book Place in Riverhead, a thoughtfully curated bookstore owned by Jocelyn, where shelves are filled with books, artisan goods, and small details that make browsing feel like an experience. Inside, you’ll also find Hampton Tarot, adding another layer of creativity and energy to the space.

From there, the ride continued to Love Lane Kitchen, where brunch delivered exactly what every rider hopes for — warm food, strong coffee, and a moment to slow down and take it all in.

A local ride. Great books. Good food. And a community of women building something meaningful.

The perfect way to kick off the 2026 riding season.
