11/24/24 | Sun | 10:30am | NA/B/25/1793 | River Road Park in Bedminster | George Decker | 1453 - Gravel to Cider Mill | 72 | This will be a test ride of a route I have ridden during my explorations during previous years. We will reward ourselves with pastries, donuts, cider, beans and apples at the Cider Mill farm. The starting point will be at River Road Park, between the two fields. (Not Bedminster I; not Burnt Mills Park.) It is my first attempt at creating a route using RWGPS. I know the way, but we should plan to stay together. If you need a cue sheet, please download it from RWGPS. The roads are mostly familiar to Freewheeler gravel riders, but there are a few new connectors. Additionally, this route is a bit hillier than the "Medio" ride. All paces are welcome. | A gravel ride to the Cider Mill farms. |

So this ride is half my age and I'll schedule the other half for my half-birthday, May 27, 2025! This is a great opportunity to burn some calories before the Thanksgiving glut-a-thon. Help me celebrate my birthday on a nice ride to Princeton. | This is another variation of the rides thru the Somerset-Mercer farmlands and backroads of Princeton with a return along the canel. Ride by Lorin Press | Food stops: mile 22 - Terra Momo Bread Company (nee Witherspoon Bread Company) or Cafe at library (restrooms at library) |
