  • Beat the heat! Temps will top 100 later today.

5:45AM start looks like around 80 degrees.

You're not doing anything else at 5:45AM anyway!

Lots of flat with a few climbs to stay in shape; )

Ride from Loantaka Park into the Great Swamp, through Meyersville and along Fairmount Ave. and Southern Blvd. in Chatham. One good hill out of the Swamp, otherwise easy terrain.

Can't think of a more appropriate ride to celebrate July 4th.   We will be riding through Jocky Hollow that commemorates the sites of General Washington and the Continental Army's winter encampment from December 1779 to June 1780, where soldiers survived the coldest winter on record. Most of the climbing occurs first 10 miles and we will be going up Bailey Hollow Rd, a long and very steep climb.  Rest stop will be Ridge Bagel in Basking Ridge.  We do have the option of going through the Great Swamp to reduce the climbing.

DUE TO HEAT, I MOVED UP THE START TIME TO 7:30AM.

This ride presents us with the extremes in Morris County cycling - the hard climbs presented by Bailey Hollow, Jockey Hollow and Leddell and the casual, unhurried meanderings of the Great Swamp. The hard work is early in the ride and it gets easier as the ride progresses.5: Manuel Coelho, Susan Kiely (C), Paul Zitelli (C), Maggie White (D+), Susan SmythScheduled
07/04Sat8:00amB/C+/38/1764Chatham Township Municipal BuildingJoseph Reo1437 - Cocoluxe The Easy Way46

Early start time to beat the heat and to get you back in time for holiday activities.  Maybe someone will bring some libations for enjoyment after the ride if we are lucky. 

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.
