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).

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. 

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.

This route takes in most of the pleasant gravel roads in Bedminster without doing any loop-dee-loops. Bring what you need as no stops are planned.

I am changing the start location. We will start at Frontage Road in Burnt Mill Park instead of Bed One.

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.

Tired legs wanted for Monday recovery ride. B pace, no sweep.  Looking to do a conversational recovery pace but you are welcome to Show and Go if that fits your needs.  No Mimes, French or other.  Topics of conversation include: Is Jonas having a Brat summer?

This is a true sombrero ride with a very large climb in the middle, between mile 11 to mile 20 with a steep descent on Black River Rd (be careful!).  Please BYOS (bring your own snack) because the rest stop is in Pottersville.  We haven't been up to Hacklebarney in a while, and it should be a perfect day for a bike ride with temps in the 70s and some clouds.  Let's ride!  I will lead from the back.  Please join me tomorrow.

A truly scenic ride along the Black River, with horse farms, black-belted cows, and that great downhill along Black River Road. A nice climb up Guinea Hollow Road, with broad vistas as your reward. Ride by: Lorin Press

Time to start Thursday evening gravel again.

MEET AT THE FRONTAGE ROAD PARKING LOT OF BURNT MILLS PARK.  

This is a blend of the 2 previous Mountainville rides with additional loops included. Food stop is at the Oldwick General Store. NOTE: Similar to tour #904, but starting from Pluckemin/Bed-1.
