07/19Sun9:15amC+/B/40/2081Summer Road Park, ReadingtonJohn Parsekian237 - Diamonds to Daffodils II52

Hopefully there will some interest in riding after some smoke filled days. I am trying this ride again after no takers last week. It is a good route but has a bridge out. We will continue on Manners Road to avoid Van Lieus Road. Stop in Lambertville for a quick break or coffee. We should be back in plenty of time to watch the soccer final.

Similar to your 837, but start point at Summer Road Park. A scenic novel ride from 3 Bridges to Lambertville with no major hills, but lots of rollers. Original tour by Chaim Schreiber, modified by Muffin Williams (2016).

Food stops:
Lambertville - mile 19

07/19Sun9:30amD+/C/26/860Loantaka-South St., Morris Twp.Barry Seip1420 - Great Swamp Counter Clockwise33

A nice ride after being couped up because of bad air and extreme temps.

This ride goes through the swamp and returns via Chatham township.

Weather: Sunny / temps in the mid 70s / some wind

This ride will probably be a FAST D+ or low C pace given the terrain. 

Come out and join for a FUN ride on Sunday.

This ride is a modification of MAFW 1313.   The ride goes counter clockwise to the Great Swamp including a Whitebridge Road In/Out. Most of the ride is on wider roads with plenty of room for bikes and cars.   An optional stop can be at the parking lot / tennis court area at mile 14 (no food but there is a porta-potty). Mountain Bistro at 14.9 OR riders can do the whole 26 miles and refresh back at Loantaka Park.

This will be my 4th Bon Ton and I had a great time cycling the Finger Lakes.  If you have any questions, please contact me.  First sign up and register on the Bon Ton website and then sign up on the MAFW ride schedule so I know who is going.

Bon Ton Roulet | Auburn YMCA The Bon Ton Roulet is a five day bicycle tour through the beautiful Finger Lakes Region of New York State. Our fully supported tour takes cyclists from wide open farm fields, past stunning overlooks of our lakes, to cavernous water-carved gorges, National Historic Sites as well as award winning wineries. The Long Route appeals to those riders who love the challenge of a 60-75 mile ride per day. The Regular Route, typically 40-50 miles per day, tends to attract newer riders & those who plan on spending the day leisurely browsing the markets &  attractions along the way. Many riders even switch back & forth between routes during the week, making the Bon Ton the perfect tour!  Check out the website below for more info and to register.  After registering with Bon Ton please sign up on the MAFW ride schedule so we know who is going.

07/26Sun9:05amB/B/40/2020Denville Savage RdDennis Budnik1421 - BTCNJ's Bike, Brew and Pizza Ride51

Rain, smoke/haze from the wild fires cancels (I will cancel before 7:00AM that day if needed).  Steady "B" pace reaching B+ at times.  Regroup at the top of the hard climbs (but, we're not waiting till noon for you).  Tubeless riders are on your own if you get a flat.  Faster cats are welcome to zip ahead but "no one should ride alone"  However, lets try and stay together, working as a team!  Note: If I don't have at least 2 riders by 7:00AM that day, I will cancel and join another ride.  No heroes or "attitudes".  If you come with a arrogant attitude, it will be quickly "readjusted" to suit our humble group. 😊

My respectful requests/expectations:

  1. I will sweep as per the Ride Leader manual.
  2. I expect at least 1 person to ride with me, especially since there is always a small possibility that my internal defibrillator will go off. 
  3. I prefer that all who sign up commit to riding within the club’s average speed for the posted pace and prefer you not sign up if you plan to exceed the maximum average speed for the posted pace. Anyone who chooses to ride faster than the maximum average speed for the posted pace will be considered to be on your own unless you stop to regroup periodically. 
  4. Please be able to maintain the minimum average speed for the posted pace, however, no one will be dropped. 
  5. No one rides alone. 
  6. Keep an eye on your fellow riders: bikes break, accidents happen, medical emergencies happen.
