| 05/11 | Sun | 9:45am | C/B/36/1816 | Far Hills R.R. | Jeff Sperling | 311 - Far Hills-Black River Ramble | 50 | Happy Mother’s Day to all those mothers out there. Here’s a great ride that has only scheduled been once in the past year. I like that the sequence of roads at times are different than we normally go. I’m also suggesting that we avoid the dreaded Lake Road and make a right on Willow, down to Main Street where we make a left and return to the train station in Far Hills via Main Street. The mileage will be about the same. We have lots of options for stops, Oldwick, Gladstone Market, or Cocoluxe. I’m starting this ride a little early so you’ll be home in time for those Mothers’ Day celebrations. Weather forecast looks real good. Come join me on Sunday. | Travel the scenic areas of northern Somerset County with a mid-route food stop at the Oldwick or in Pottersville General Stores. Mostly gently rolling terrain with one large hill and three smaller hills. |
Food stops: Oldwick General Store (mile 16), short detour to Pottersville (Black River General Store, no restroom - mile 22) or Gladstone Market (mile 25.5) or CocoLuxe (mile 25.5) |

| 05/13 | Tue | 10:00am | D+/B/30/1773 | Pleasant Valley Park, Basking Ridge | Bob Warren | 1474 - HARDSCRABBLE CRUISE | 59 | This is a bike ride followed by lunch and rhododendron tour at my house. After the ride, bikers will drive from the park to my house, have lunch on my deck and then I will give a tour of my garden. Close friends/spouses of the bikers who do not do the bike ride are also invited - I live at 15 Kenquit Road in Warren Township. Non-riders should arrive at my house around 1 pm. Everyone should park on the street as my house is at the very end of my cul-de-sac. I will provide instructions from the park to my house for the bikers. All pace levels above D+ are invited as I will sweep the group.
| The ride journeys through the pretty rural sections of Somerset and Morris counties. It goes through Basking Ridge, past Jockey Hollow, and along the entire 3.3-mile length of Hardscrabble Road in Bernardsville. The final sections go back through Basking Ridge and Liberty Corner. Rest Stop and Bathroom at Ridge Bagel in Basking Ridge, 2 blocks off route at mile 21.1. There are a few gradual climbs along the route but it avoids the really strenuous ones. Bottom section of Hardscrabble Road has recently been paved (2024). |

| 05/15 | Thu | 6:00pm | TC/C/24/681 | Chatham Township Municipal Building | Dennis Budnik | 1352 - CTMB to Loantaka and Back | 28 | Lets do some endurance training through the Great Swamp. Very flat route! This is for "C" riders who want to go a little harder. Strong C pace that will reach "B" pace throughout the ride, finishing around 16MPH average (count on sweating). We stay together, taking turns at the head. I will rotate between front to back to lead this. If you cannot keep up, you're on your own (drop ride). If you run tubeless and get a flat you are on your own. No rest stops (other than to grab a bar). No T.T. Bikes. No E-Bikes. No bagpipes! Rain/wet roads cancels. Note: The Swamp floods easily this time of year and we need to be mindful of the "after work" traffic. If less than 2 signups before 4:00PM that day I will cancel. Peace! dB | This ride begins and ends at the Chatham Township Municipal Building (CTMB). The ride is flat and takes you through the Great Swamp to South Street where you pass Loantaka Park (bathrooms) at Mile 12. Then the route continues through Chatham Township. Rest Stop is at the Green Village Deli at Mile 15.5 and there are tables outside. Park in the Upper Parking Lot near the children's play area. Bathrooms available during general working hours. | 1: Dennis Budnik | scheduled |
