OK Freewheelers, it is time to post Kingsland 2X's. Come join me for a fun, challenging hilly ride. Let's Challenge all the riding that we have been doing. We will regroup at the top of the challenging hills so no one will be left behind. I will sweep and I will lead so no one will be left behind. Strong C riders, you know who you are, are welcome and encouraged to attend. Let's Do This! Coffee will be at SmartWorld on Diamond Springs. Most of you know where it is, so Let's Ride!

A scenic tour through Denville and surrounding countryside featuring one of Denville's more 'interesting' hills in both directions. By Ron Salny (2014).

Good weather for a 40+ miler and be back by noon or so to enjoy lunch at home and more of the outdoors for the rest of the day too.

Another ride to Oldwick and Mountainville with a twist; we turn left in Mountainville and go around Round Vally and to Stanton. Ride by Lorin Press.

Lebanon General Store (mile 19) CLOSED on Saturday and at 1 PM on Sundays Stanton General Store (mile 26) Whitehouse (mile 33) make right onto route 28 to get to Whitehouse General Store then make a U-Turn

Starting early to avoid the humidity and heat.  If it is raining or 80% chance of rain, the ride will be canceled

Early flat ride to beat the heat.   30 miles.  We can add on if additional miles are requested.  No stops and bring water and electrolytes.  Please note that this is a drop ride but i will not leave the end point until all are back.  There are some short cuts available if you need them. 

A perfect ride for all levels from D to B.   The route is perfect for a leisurely pace to enjoy the beauty of the great swamp or as a pace-line training ride.  The one larger hill on Millbrook Road is purposely included in the first third of the ride while your legs are fresh. Although there are no places to stop for food on this ride, Loantaka Park at Mile 11 is a great place to stop and regroup and take a bathroom break if needed.  The starting point also has a bathroom available if the municipal building is open.

Sunday looks to be the nicer of the weekend days with humidity and heat index breaking but still warm and sunny so an early start.  I'll be on the slower side, riding my "acoustic bike."  Come join me!

Whitehouse General Store is closed so bring a snack.
