05/30Sat9:30amB/C+/45/1778Ghost Lake, AllamuchyRobert Kojko986 - Out of Hope40

This is my favorite region of Jersey and I only did two rides there last year. I’m hoping to fix that and will try to post more rides to explore the best of Warren and Sussex Counties 

A further extension of the popular Hope ride #961, and its extended version #964.  Adds the popular South St. loop.. This tour goes near the Town of Hope, but doesn't get there, thus it is named "Out of Hope". Don't be intimidated by C+ terrain rating, at 40 ft/mile it is right on border between C and C+ terrain with no big climbs. "Pretzel" route that crosses itself several times - good for iffy weather days as it is easy to cut the route short. Tour by Len Sanders and Steve Diamond (2015).

Food stops:
Tranquility Store (mile 26).

05/31Sun9:00amB/C+/38/1764Chatham Township Municipal BuildingJoseph Reo1437 - Cocoluxe The Easy Way46

It’s getting warmer so the rides are starting earlier with the added benefit of less cars on the road. Hope to see you there. Please note that we will look to set a strong pace but we will regroup as necessary after any climbs to regroup as necessary.  

Starting from CTMB,  a pleasant rolling ride to Cocoluxe and Ravine Lake which avoids climbs on Tempe Wick, Corey and South Maple. Out and back via Liberty Corner.  Rest stops include Cocoluxe at mile 17 and Just Ride Along Bike and Coffee Shop at mile 20.

This route takes us to the highest point in Tewksbury by climbing Guinea Hollow Rd then Sutton Rd. The first half of the ride is mostly up, the second half is mostly down. Short stop at Oldwick General Store to top off bottles and a quick snack if needed. 

Some new roads and a new take on some familiar roads. Climb to the highest point in Tewksbury! Stop at the Oldwick General Store. Tour by Muffin Williams (2016).

05/31Sun9:30amC/C+/33/1435Denville Savage RdPete Aldrich1501 - Lake Parsippany - JC Reservoir Dam43

This is a route that was created last year but hasn't been ridden yet by the club. It's a change of scenery from what we're used to with Denville rides. There are a few points where there may be some traffic such as Parsippany and Boonton. We'll stop at mile 32 near the end at Smartworld Coffee in Denville.

Ride begins by traveling through Cedar Lake section of Denville and then heads over to Lake Parsippany and eventually past the Jersey City Reservoir dam and waterworks. The route then travels back through Boonton and Mountain Lakes before stopping at Smartworld Coffee in Denville just a mile from the end.

05/31Sun9:30amC/C+/38/1544Pluckemin (Bedminster I)Jeff Sperling50 - Pluckemin And Points South41

Amazingly, this ride has not been posted since November 2024. It’s a good one since we travel familiar roads in different directions. Our stop will be at Wawa, where else? It’s the end of the month, so come join me on Sunday. 

Ride on new roads to old favorite stops in Neshanic and Three Bridges.

CAUTION: Uncontrolled crossing of Route 202
on River Road.

Wawa on Rt 202.

05/31Sun10:30amD/C/12/349Pops Bike ShopMichael Chenkin1475 - Popscycle 129

Here is a ride for novice riders, those returning to cycling, and those looking for a mellow recovery ride. I'll keep the group together on this ride for safety and comfort reasons.  This is a fairly scenic tour with some small hills with just enough climb to strengthen your legs and raise the heart rate a little.

Parking in Somerville is free on Sundays and you can park in the lot behind Pop's Bike Shop by turning on to Warren Street from Main Street and entering the first parking lot on the right.

Suitable for beginning riders and those looking for a short scenic route, this ride takes you on a flat route with a couple of small climbs past Duke Island Park and returns via scenic River Road.  There are many easy possible variations of this ride including adding a stretch from the entrance to Duke Island Park down the path past the waterfall and exiting the park at the Maintenance Facility back to Old York Road.

There is no food stop since the ride is short.

06/02Tue10:30amB/B/47/2675White Oak Park - BranchburgEric Lavitsky1134 - Mind Your Manners57

This route hasn't been ridden in over 2 years, but it's a nice way to go down to the Sourlands and avoid the busiest roads.  The weather right now looks to be quite mild, but it might be damp from rain overnight. I've set a later start time to give the roads a chance to dry out, but stay tuned in case the start time changes. We'll take a break at Boro Bean before the climb out of Hopewell and regroup periodically to keep the group together. Strong C+ riders are welcome.

"A scenic ride to the Sourlands with gradual climbs on the way to Hopewell. Look for Candlelight Farm Alpacas on Manner Road where you will see the herd out in the field. Rest stop at Boro Bean. On the return trip, a long uphill will be followed by a welcome downhill. All crossings on Rt 202 are controlled."Food: Hopewell (mile 27) - Boro Bean or Brick Farm2: Eric Lavitsky (B), Lynn Kheshgi (C+)Scheduled
