    JORBA Open Membership Page

    Been riding in NJ for a long time and never joined for reasons mentioned within many of the threads on this site, but the above convinced me to join.

    NYNJTC trifold in the office at WaWay

    It wasn’t meant to be fair or unfair, just a personal observation.

    NYNJTC trifold in the office at WaWay

    This is interesting information, but the one thing that’s hard to put a number to is the quality of the trails. Folks from NJ drive to VT so they can ride better quality trails not necessarily more trails.

    Trailside repair anxiety

    Had good success with Stan’s Dart’s. Got a pinch flat which required two plugs with one being at the edge of the rim. Still holding air just fine months later.

    Union County Freeholders

    Is that supposed to be some kind of tease? The only thoughts they accept are those that have nothing to do with inclusion of other user groups. The fine print should say - Your thoughts are welcome but if they include the “b” word, we will outright dismiss it so don’t even think about it.

    Essex county freeholders

    Let’s be a little more generous... more like sucking Northern Pacific Right Whale balls because there needs to be some left over for Union County.

    Send me your ideas for Lew Mo

    This is really exciting!! The park has some really fun sections which should be kept, but fixed. Proper drainage needs to be established in certain areas. The addition of more trails would be a plus. Adding features would be the icing on the cake. Better trail markings would help navigation...

    Building a solid multi use trail

    NICA will need to lead the charge if that’s the path which will lend the best results. It cant be some “middle to upper class, middle aged, probably white, probably male, who wants to ride in your precious walking only forest” people leading this endeavor. Based off prior experience, the MTB...

    What motivates you?

Being off the bike for a couple weeks and then getting back on usually turns up the motivation a couple notches because I...

    Is this America?

    My folks bought a house in the early 80’s and yes their interest rate was pretty high as well, however it only took one person working to able to do that. They didn’t have to pay extra for some one to came and get their garbage or pay extra for their sewer. Corporations weren’t lobbying for...

    Is this America?

    The greatest enemy of mankind is man himself/herself. American greed is strong and has a foothold. There are only two real privileges: political privilege and rich privilege. Don’t kid yourself and think these privileged people are willing to do what’s good for the long term nor what’s good for...
