Wow, thats some ride on a mountain bike 80 miles! You would kick but if you had a 16lb. road bike under you. :)

Nice going, man! On a S/S no less. You wouldn't be related to a 6'4" Celt that used to hang here, would you?

Is that yellow marked trail, the yellow CR trail? I've yet to ride the yellow / orange trails there.

Wow that sounds like a fun ride. Did you connect all the parks between Clifton and the rock or just ride the road out and back?
I have a version of that ride that brings me through Mills, Hill Top, Eagle Rock, South Mtn, Watchung, The rock and riding the road back. It took all day and about 20 dollars of food. What a blast! Glad to hear someone else gave it a shot.

Liong keep riding man! You almost made it to the podium on the last race in Blue Mountain SS Sports Cat. All those mileage will definitely give you a better chance next race season. Good Luck!

Just curious, during such a long day do you stop to eat lunch or dinner, or do you just eat whatever you carry along?

Great Job!!
 
Tim D, you MUST post that route one day... I grew up riding Mills, Eagle Rock, South Mountain and Watchung... I'll be damned if I can figure out your route...

Peace,
