The Finish Line
For 2025 our finish line will be at Montauk County Park - Third House
1929 Montauk Highway
Montauk, NY. 11954
(Careful! There are two different sections of Montauk County Park -- that's the correct address for where we'll be.)
We like this spot for a lot of reasons:
Well, for one thing, our old finish line, Rick's Crabby Cowboy Cafe was sold awhile back... and then burned to the ground shortly thereafter. (I was nowhere near the place and I have a solid alibi!)
No more giant hills at the end of the ride! This new finish line saves you about a hundred feet of serious climbing at the end of a big day.
Relax and have a free hot shower, free all-you-can-eat post-ride meal, free massage, and free Blue Point Brewery beer (provided you are 21 years old and can prove it!)
Parking
Have friends coming to pick you up at the finish?
There is no parking, at all, at the finish line. By the time we bring in the shower truck, the beer, the food, and set out the luggage we trucked to Montauk for you there's just no room.
The East Hampton police will be at the entrance to the park, so tell your friends to not even THINK about parking on the shoulder, and no, they can NOT wait there "just for a minute". The police have been super-supportive of the ride, but they WILL be writing tickets galore -- don't do it!
Not to worry! You can park nearby here:
2000 Old Montauk Highway
Montauk, NY 11954
There's an $8 fee to park at the lighthouse. We don't get any of that money -- it goes to the NY State Park Service.
We will have a free shuttle bus to take you back and forth between the finish line and the lighthouse with your bike.
Showers
There are hot showers available for free at the end of the ride in our shower trucks. Don't forget to pack a towel and a change of clothes in the bag we truck out to Montauk for you.

Massage
Free massages are available at the finish line by our longtime massage expert Doug Mandalone and his crew. We wish we had time to provide massages for all riders, but that's impossible -- we'll do our best to take care of you.

Food

We serve a free hot meal at the finish line for vegetarian and non-vegetarian registered riders. This meal is all-you-can eat. We serve free soft drinks AND free Blue Point Brewery beer (provided you are at least 21 years old and can prove it.)

If you have friends or family coming to meet you they can purchase the all-you-can-eat meal including Blue Point Brewery and Montauk Brewing Company beer for $45 at the finish line. (This is our cost). Stop by the finish line help desk.
