| 09/20 | Mon | 9:30am | C/C/33/861 | Loantaka-South St., Morris Twp. | Richard Poore | 1132 - Great Swamp Classic-Extended | 26 | Faster D+ riders welcome. Not much climbing. An easy start to the week. Sunny to partly cloudy with a hint of a breeze. All in all it should be a Goldilocks ride. | An extended version of Tour #778 to utilize the Food Stop at the Fairmount deli | 13: Betsy Eastwood, Sasha Deieso(D+), Marvin Schwinder(C), Fred Bennett(C), George Joseph(C), Lou Blanco(C), Alan Zenkert, Jay Marowitz(C), Conrad Steeneck(C), Craig Rothenberg, John Delaney(S), Sal Rizzo(C) | ridden | |
| 09/20 | Mon | 10:00am | C/B/29/1500 | Harry Dunham Park | Jeff Sperling | 676 - Liberty Corner to Pluckemin | 52 | Over the past two weeks, we have encountered lots of bridges that we’ve had to lift ourselves and our bikes over barricades to continue our rides. I was determined to find a ride that we could complete without any storm impediments. I found this ride, drove it today, and I’m ready to lead it. It has not been ridden in over a year. I would say 1/3 of the distance are on roads that will be new to most riders. Other familiar roads we will be going opposite to the usual routes. There is a surprising amount of climbing for a short distance. Right out of the gate we climb Somerville Road to the top, and Crim Road has some elevation as well. After that we have lots of rolling terrain. The only change, of course, will be when we encounter the road closure at Liberty Corner Road and Douglas at the end of the ride . You know the drill by now, left on Douglas, right on Mine Brook, right on Cantebury, and we will back to the start. Current weather forecast for Monday looks great. Since the ride will approximate 30 miles, I’m not planning a stop, but we have the Far Hills train station at mile 26 if needed. Come join me on Monday. | A country ride that winds through Bedminster, Pluckemin and Far Hills | 5: Ron Polansky(C), Tracy Brown(C), Naomi Falange, Eric Lavitsky(B) | ridden | |
| 09/20 | Mon | 10:00am | D/C/35/1355 | Pluckemin (Bedminster I) | Len Friedman | 282 - Stanton Roundabout (School Rd) | 39 | D+ Riders Welcome | Tour through beautiful horse country and farmlands estates. To be on the safe side, bring an energy bar or other snack in case food shops aren't open. Similar to tour 782, but crosses Rt 22 in Whitehouse on School Rd in both directions.

I will sweep at ~16mph avg. Wanna-B's (aka strong C+ riders) are welcome so long as they can handle the pace. Do not use the route linked from the club website. Use this route instead: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/37554921. I've modified the route to avoid Lower Creek Road which was apparently rendered impassable by Ida. | Similar to tour 883, but start point at Summer Road Park. A new way to head up the plateau, past Sky Manor Airport and come into Frenchtown the back way. Then the ups & downs, twists & turns begin for a rest stop along the canal in Stockton. Back home via Lower Creek. You won't be disappointed -- the scenery is beautiful. Tour by Muffin Williams (2017). |

Any trippers who wishes can drive down the night before and stay at a hotel near the start of this ride. The closest hotel is the Red Carpet Inn, in Hammonton, N.J. This is a self supported ride. Riders will carry any clothing that they need with them. Possibilities are a bike bag or a small daypack, like the Jansport I use, pictured below, to carry one change of bicycling clothing for the next day, some clothes for the night, walking shoes for the night, maybe a bathing suit, and a tooth brush. We are going at an easy pace and stopping for breaks.
This route has been designed by a member of the Princeton Freewheelers. I have made this a joint ride with the Staten Island Bicycling Association.
This will be a B+ pace but we will form groups according to speed.
The ride will start on September 25, at 9 am, from the parking lot of the Hammonton Middle School 75 N. Liberty St. Hammonton NJ, 08037. We will park by the tennis courts.
We ride 87.7 miles to our hotel, the Red Roof Inn, close to the Monmouth, Mall. After the hotel overnight, we ride 81.9 miles back to Hammonton, N.J.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The hotel, Red Roof Inn, charges $72.00. If anyone chooses not to stay at that hotel, there is also a Quality Inn, $99 for the night, and a DoubleTree by Hilton for $188 for the night.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Each person going will have to contact the hotel themselves to pay.
Restaurants near the hotels are Applebees, Maurizzio Pizzeria, Kwong Fa takeout or Jersey Shore Deli takeout. Also, a trip to the Jersey shore, Long Branch NJ, about 5 miles is possible. If the forecast is for rain close to the event, it will be cancelled.
Please respond to me if you wish to go or have questions at RoyFischman@gmail.com.

Current weather forecast looks good. We can stop at either Krauzers or the Millington Train station cafe. Please park closer to the Chatham Middle School and away from the church parking lot. Come join me on Saturday. | This is the Chatham-Bernardsville Roundabout in reverse. It's long been known that cycling a ride in reverse can change it's character and this ride will prove it.

Their Web site shows that the Cider Mill is open Thursday - Sunday from 10 am t0 5pm. (I will confirm this tomorrow - Thursday) This will be my first time riding this route. I hope my Domane LT will power me up the hills. Please join me for a fun ride on a cool Friday Morning. We will STOP at the Cider Mill for a snack and then return to Bed 1. Bring a Cue Sheet and a Mask.
| A slightly shorter version of tour 1110, with a more direct return from Oldwick, skipping the climb up King St. But you still get the big climb up Black River to be rewarded with a cider donut at the Cider Mill. "Sombrero" terrain profile - mostly flat to begin (but does include the Burnt Mills bump), big, tough climb up Black River, ride along plateau, then big downhill on Fox Hill (great view) then mostly flat back to start.
