Please BYOS (bring your own snack) because the rest stop is in Pottersville.

| 06/02 | Tue | 10:30am | B/B/47/2675 | White Oak Park - Branchburg | Eric Lavitsky | 1134 - Mind Your Manners | 57 | 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 | 3: Eric Lavitsky (B), Lynn Kheshgi (C+), Tom Sterk | Scheduled |
