Hell of Hunterdon 2017

[Ian F]

Oh yeah... air... I'm used to carrying an old Zefel frame pump on my road bike. Not sure if it'll fit on the Grade.

I'll have to remember to charge my lights as well if we'll be riding in the rain.

I will be. But I'll also be wearing mtn bike shoes. That said, I'll be wearing my "XC race pack" vs my giant (and usually heavy AF) trail pack.

One advantage of getting old: DGAF what the cool kids do.

Is this North or South Jersey? Do I order pork roll or Taylor ham for pre-ride breakfast. Please advise. Asking for a friend.

@1sh0t1b33r, no New Yorkers allowed!!! Or are you a deputized New Jerseyan by virtue of your kit?

Yes and Yes.
At these temps, a 20-24 oz bottle last an hour, so 2 bottles if more than enough between rest stops. No need for a camel back.

South of Route 78. South Jersey.

Basically Deliverance.

Vest and a rain jacket?

If you Blibe in the hour by hour forecasts, it will be in the mid 60's if the rain comes, which -10 for rain real feel, which is close to the temp at the start of the ride. Meaning, probably don't need to fill a pocket with a rain jacket. That being said, if you are CAF when it starts to rain, I claim no responsibility.


I got $5 if you wear a sleeveless jersey

its a onesie - not happening.

No vest. Options?

How do u not own a vest...this is required clothing. If u move to FL it could be your winter jacket.

Central Jersey.

Right on the border between Giants and Eagles.

If you've never ridden these roads before you're going to love them. (You like hills, right?)

I'm weird and like climbing more than sketchy descents. But that does not mean I'm fast at them.

Never liked vests of any kind. The only one I own is a hunting vest

Love a hard climb. Hate sketchy descents

Thanks not for water. Bringing 2 bottles. Taking the bladder out and would rather use the camelback for a few extras like cliff bars, gels, glasses (don't ask) that I'd rather not stuff in my back jersey pockets. I don't like a big bulge in my pockets

See all you dorks in the morning. If you need any help, look for the Poop Brown rolling tech center.

This vest is the best money I've ever spent on bike clothing.

I have a nice orvis fishing vest you can use.
