Riding & Routes on the East End

There is a moment just before sunrise on Bluff Road when the Hamptons feels completely untouched. The ocean sits still, the sky turns soft shades of peach and blue, and the only sound is the steady rhythm of your wheels rolling along the pavement. If there is one ride that captures the spirit of the East End, it is this one.

Start in the heart of Amagansett and make your way toward Indian Wells. The route is simple, but the landscape is anything but. The dunes rise beside you like quiet giants, the ocean air is cool and clean, and the long open stretch invites you to find your pace. Early mornings here are magic. Traffic is almost nonexistent, the wind is calmer, and the colors that wash over the coastline feel like they were painted just for you.

For a longer ride, you can weave through the backroads toward Cranberry Hole or continue along Old Montauk Highway for a scenic extended loop. Riders who want a slower, more meditative morning can stick to a short out and back and stop at the beach access points to take in the view.

The secret of Bluff Road is that it is not designed to challenge you. It is designed to ground you. It is the kind of route that brings you back to why you started riding in the first place. So wake up early, roll out easy, and watch the East End open up in front of you.
