This route goes up Kinnelon Rd to the Kinnelon Stop & Shop, meets up with other MAFW and BTCNJ riders, then returns to Denville for a stop at SmartWorld Coffee. 

Should be a beautiful day for this ride! We’ll warm up on the climbs up Capner and Old Croton and enjoy the scenery through the big descent down Cherryville Hollow, which should be quite nice as the temperature rises. There’s an option for a stop at Cafe Maria around mile 21.5 for a quick break. Bring plenty of snacks and liquids. Strong C+ riders are welcome. There is no sweep, but we will regroup after the big climbs and the descent down Cherryville Hollow to try and keep the group together.

Will add the Mountainville U-turn to the ride.  Will leave the airport loop as an option on the return.  

The ride was created.  Now it's time to do this ride.

A 'flat' ride so I expect a FASTER D+ pace around 12.5 - 13 mph.

Slower C riders are welcome.

Come FLY with me on this Maiden Tour.

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. 😊

There are bathrooms at ball fields at mile 23.5. If closed there are bathrooms and a porta john at Pyramid Mt Mile 25.4.

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.
