09/13 | Sat | 7:00am | NA/NA/0/0 | Special Event | Dennis Budnik | 952 - Special Event - Sourlands Spectacular | 0 | Join me for one of my favorite events. Fully supported and a beautiful route. You must register to do this ride (see description below). I will lead this as a "true C" pace and would like to keep us together, waiting on the tops of the climbs. No one should ride alone. I will sweep the back and jump to the front and hopefully others will take the pulls to help as a team. We will not look for speed but, rather "effort". If heavy rains predicted, I will not ride (but I will not cancel for those who want to go on). I will not ride if smoke/haze from the Canadian wild fires effects us that day. Looking for a volunteer to lead a faster and a slower ride. Questions: e-mail me: dennyboyrom@yahoo.com. | Ride to benefit Sourlands Conservancy. Start point is at Watershed Institute Campus, 31 Titus Mill Road near Pennington. Need to register via the link below. For more information on this event check out the link below.
