10:00amC+/C+/48/2341Chatham Township Municipal BuildingJoseph Reo1460 - CTMB Black River Express **CANCELED**49

Best ride in America - I mean the MAFW database.   48 miles but not that hilly.  Enjoy one of the last warmer days of 2025.   Make sure you bring adequate food as the stop is two thirds into the ride,

For those of you looking for a slightly longer more challenging ride out  of CTMB. 

This route is not to be taken lightly, it hits some of our most favorite roads enjoyed by novices and experts alike. So, get on your bike and celebrate the glory of biking with friends, cheers !!

This ride stops at the bagel place in Flemington, but I want to try out the new bakery Bread and Culture which is a bit farther down main street at  123 Main Street and is open on Sundays. Their reviews look wonderful. It should be sunny and not too cold. We'll start a bit earlier to beat the afternoon wind. Hope to see you.

11:30amD+/C+/20/890Burnt Mills ParkJeff Sperling1481 - Bedminster Area Gravel45

Now that all the snow has been washed away, let’s get back to graveling. I’ve led this one a few times and it’s a good one, short but adequate.  Sunday will be in the 40s and windy, a nice time to ride gravel and not tie up your whole day. Please bring adequate nutrition and fluids. 

A short, pleasant gravel ride in the Bedminster area.  Approximately 75% gravel/ 25% road.  Ride ends by taking the paved path from River Road Park back to the Frontage Road parking lot but can be modified by making a right on either Bunn Road or Klines Mill Road from River Road and taking Burnt Mills Road back to the Frontage Road lot.
