Yup. @capedoc and I were out there last Saturday along with a couple of other local riders to run the weedwhackers and leaf blowers. Several others were working on bridges.

There's a small parking area on the south side of Rt. 518. The blue-blazed trail starts across the road.

Put these coordinates into Google Maps. 40.358524, -74.908416

Baldpate and the greenway trail are ok right now but water company is super hard to follow in the dark right I had trouble staying in the trail with the leaves last week and that was at midday.

I figured it would be hard to follow , thx for the replies ... I will do this ride another day

Reach out to me next week if you want a tour. In up in there quite a bit.

Night riding is fine. But like kev said, lot of leaves on the ground.

I usually just ride to the trailhead from my house and enter via 518. There is a parking lot there but I'm not too keen on people parking there at night.

Most local folks that ride there are Parking down in Lambertville and riding up the dirt rd, (Rock rd.) and starting at that trailhead.

What ever you do, do not park at the top of Rock Rd. The house at the end of that road was sold last week and we haven't had a chance to introduce ourselves to the new owners and yet.

Public service announcement to whoever is listening:

Please stay out of the Water Co. for now. It's rained for a week and needs time to dry out. Was out there on foot and I can see that a lot of folks can't resist the urge to ride despite the wet conditions. It's damaging the trails. Lets use some common sense.
