  • Long Island Trail Enthusiasts (LITE)

     Above all, Rollo and the members I've met so far are amazingly friendly and just darn cool. The group is highly active, going once or even twice a week, so there are many opportunities to join in, no matter if you're looking for weekend, weekday, short, long, local or far. One of my favorite Meetup groups. I look forward to many more outings with these guys!

  • Long Island Trail Enthusiasts (LITE)

     This is a wonderful group to help you learn about the green spaces right here on LI. I've met Rollo and April Z so far and if they are any indication of the people involved in this group, I am proud to be associated with them in this small way . This group is quite active so you should be able to find a hike to attend fairly easily. I look forward to the next hike.

    on May 18, 2010.

  • Long Island Trail Enthusiasts (LITE)

     The people that attend are the best! The places to go and things to do are also excellent - hikes, bicycles, kayaks, plus! Outings vary from fast to slow, long to short, hard (hilly) to easy (flat), east to west and north to south. Lots to choose from. Rollo is a good coordinator and leader.

     To learn about the natural area that surrounds you each day; knowing more typically = caring more about preserving these areas for use by all

     Meeting very nice folks with similar interests and being led by a friendly, knowledgeable guide is a wonderful way to get out into our natural environment and enjoy the out-of-doors. Clears the mind and feeds the soul!

    on Dec 7, 2009.

  • Long Island Trail Enthusiasts (LITE)

     I smile to myself when I think that I went for a hike with seven total strangers in a park I’ve never been to, it was fun! Getting acquainted with the hikers was like the hike itself, you get to appreciate new experiences that you just never recognized existed before.

     This group is packed with great people who love to explore Long Island and beyond!

  • Long Island Trail Enthusiasts (LITE)

     There is a lot of variety planned by these people, sometimes events going in different directions on the same day...I had a choice today to hike or ride. If you are looking for things to do of differing skill levels with pleasant people, this is a great group to join.

     Rollo rocks. Everybody else rock with him too. 

    on Sep 27, 2009.

  • Long Island Trail Enthusiasts (LITE)

     If you want to meet some friendly activity-oriented, local folks who take the opportunity to enjoy every aspect of weather, appreciate the natural flora, fauna and geologic features, learn and share ideas between each other while putting some miles under your soles, and oh yes, smile for the memories - this could be the ideal "Meet-Up" group for you! 

    on Sep 3, 2009.

  • Long Island Trail Enthusiasts (LITE)

     Rollo really thinks of everything while never making you feel as though he is in charge. Very professional and friendly at the same time.

     What could be better than to walk and see beautiful sights on Long Island. 

    on Jul 25, 2009.

  • Long Island Trail Enthusiasts (LITE)

     it's a great opportunity to meet new people and get some fresh air and excersize at the same time. 

    on Jul 18, 2009.

  • Long Island Trail Enthusiasts (LITE)

     This meet up is a way for dogs and owners to get out and meet others who may not be able to do so very often. If you have a dog that needs to learn how to walk better on a leash this could be a great way to get him or her to practice leash walking for 2 to 3 hours. It was alot of fun to walk the trails and share stories about our dogs and get some well needed excercise.

  • Long Island Trail Enthusiasts (LITE)

     great way to explore this beautiful island!
