That was a great ride and great photos, thanks! A real no-mans-land out there.

Now that I have poked around over there, I feel the need to explore it more. It really is beautiful.

Yes. Not world class but at least there are a few miles of cross country trails.

Here is the view from the client's Board Room (where they keep the snowboards):
Not riding as much as I would like, says everyone on this board...
However, Saturday, had a great time with B Money and Burning Man. We noticed that someone had cleaned up a trail that had been blocked and the blocking debris was thrown 50 yards down a mountain. Perfect ride, including the galactic sidewall rip that preceded the long walk home.

I hope @Kaleidopete gets out today, I still have him beat this week.
13 hr, 5 min. 211 miles
Usual mix of rides, mostly road, but discovered a fantastic "rogue" (actually it pre-dates the local version of Jorba) singletrack trails system close enough to ride to. Didn't expect this - I'd give it a solid B grade in my NJ trails rating system. And yesterday by serendipity I met one of the guys that built and maintains it. He gave me the skinny on all the trail riding around here - turns out I'm in one of the best areas of the state. More mountain biking in the near future.

Usual to the beach rides:
As it gets warmer, more gators are coming out to sun:
13 hr, 5 min. 211 miles

Well I did get out today, and had a nice ride. The trails are really hard frozen now and for
some reason they are much better to ride than a few days ago. I went by the shelter on
the Appellation trail and saw someone was in there camping. I didn't want to disturb them,
so I rode on.
Family fishing day, heading out on the ice

What a beautiful morning to be out....
The sloatsburg dam. Built over 200 years ago to power a sawmill and tannery, and later on a textiles and silk mill.....pretty much all that is left....fires and floods have destroyed the Mills over the years.....
Overlooking the 'Burg.....
Mysterious stone carved statue kind of in the middle of nowhere....

Since I didn’t get out until the thermometer was already reading 32 degrees, I decided to do one of my local enduros. Not enduro as in long, but as in on/off road.
Someone had been getting artistic with branches on this short little trail...
This icy hill reminded me why I rarely take the power line in this direction.
