Raritan River Rd in Califon

[rlb]

Calling @jShort...

Can you ride Raritan River Rd all the way down to Cokesbury Rd? I realize it's unpaved for a bit, is it doable on a road bike w/ 25c tires?

Yea. Isn't that kenlockwood? Unless it's too early for me to be looking at that map link.
If so, good to go. I take my kids in the trailer on that and back up on the Columbia trail.

Starting in high bridge, Columbia trail down to Califon, kenlockwood to Columbia trail back to high bridge is a great beginning bike ride

Yes it is, I had never been there before so I had no clue.

Made it, totally passable on a road bike but it's a little slow going. Mostly hard packed with some spots of chunky gravel. Definitely more scenic than 513 but that's a hell of a lot faster since it's a dh bomb.

Just FYI, if you want to combine a Columbia Trail/Lockwood Gorge ride with some good food and music, the Califon Street Fair is October 8th 1pm-5pm. https://www.facebook.com/events/128062977773556/
