Summer temps to start a new week.  Earlier start to avoid the hottest part of the day.  Don't forget sunscreen and lots of fluids.

My ride guidelines:

  1. I will sweep as per the Ride Leader manual.
  2. I expect at least 1 person to ride with me, especially since I have no way of knowing in advance if I’ll have a defibrillator event.  (Rare, but still possible.)
  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.
  7. Please do not sign up for this ride if you are unwilling to follow these guidelines.

We will stop for fluids and BR break in Lambertville. Be prepared for the heat. 

Similar to tour 1124 but it avoids PA by taking a detour at mile 18.6*  and goes straight to Lambertville (avoiding Stockton and about 3 miles of boring, flat, busy roads along the river).

6 AM beat the heat today. Highs predicted in the mid-90's in the afternoon.

Stay safe and ride with us in the cool of the morning: )

True C pace for me Tuesday, but as usual, speedier riders are welcome to come and disappear from sight! 

A wonderfully flat and relaxing ride around the Swamp. A great beginners ride. You get the serenity of the Great Swamp.

CAUTION: Gravel on Lord Stirling Rd (mile 10.9)
Food stops: Basking Ridge (Ridge Bagel, mile 13) Country Fox Cafe (mile 18.7)

05/19Tue6:00pmTC/C/23/894Pluckemin (Bedminster I)Dennis Budnik754 - Pluckemin to Oldwick via RVCC39

Join me for a "T" (training) ride, a fast paced "C" for those "C" riders who want to take it up a notch.  Forecast is for 98F during the day so, we'll play it by ear for pacing that evening.  No real hills.  A no drop ride but... please be able to maintain a reasonable C pace (I will not wait for you until sunup the next morning).  We stay together, taking turns at the pull.  No rest stop.  Hydration mandatory (with electrolytes!).  Threatening weather cancels (I will cancel before 4:00PM that day if needed).  Topic of discussion: "Schrödinger's cat".  Can it really be both "dead and alive".  Prohibited: any music with Bb tenor saxophones.  Peace!  dB

NOTE: Similar to tour #902, but starting from Pluckemin/Bed-1.

Food stops:
Oldwick General Store (mile 13.5)

I led this ride last September and it hasn’t been scheduled since so let’s set it up for Wednesday morning to beat the heat. It’s a beautiful ride with a couple of climbs.  We will make a rare left turn on Homestead at the bottom of Fox Hollow. Our stop will be at Black River General Store. We will have the option of riding back via Burnt Mill Road, Meadow snd Country Club. We can discuss before the ride start. Come join me on Wednesday. 

A pleasant ride to Oldwick, Mountainville and the scenic backcountry of Tewksbury Twp. Multiple snack/lunch stops available.
