Refreshments, key to success of your meeting
 
I am always amazed at how many trails we have in NJ.
I finally got off my but and rode. 1 hour 26 mins. 14 miles. I was shredding tatum on my rockhopper. /s. semi slick tires with lots of leaves is kinda fun.

Lots of people, horses and a guy that was unloading his full suspension bike as I was leaving. Was that anybody here?

I've had a very tough cold and have been off the bike for nearly 3 weeks, you should have pounced!!! Things were just starting to heat up between me and @Hot Action.. oh well, next year I guess. I think I will make a few last entries starting on Monday, but this was fun and motivating! Thanks guys
 
3/10/2017: It's winter again. This ride at Wawayanda State Park after the snow. It was some sticky snow, so the sledding was tougher than I expected. But, the snow was pretty much virgin on everything I rode. There were some spots with just an inch and others that were 6" deep. So, with that sticky factor, I was king of HAB on almost anything that resembled uphill. Still, it felt like winter again. I encountered a lady in the lot who had been out trying to get in some XC skiing. She was equally challenged by the sticky factor of the snow.

3/11/2017: A bit less snow in Sterling Forest today vs. yesterday at Wawayanda. It also seemed to have dried out a little...i.e. not so sticky. It was pretty cold when the wind would kick up. I got a little lost (or should I say "off-track"), and actually had to pop out into a neighborhood. I was quite glad not to see a big dog come charging across the lawn at me.

Good dismount is key...

Is that one of those pocono waterparks? Just got back from one of those as well late last night....great form, you're distributing the impact of your slam equally across your upper back and down both arms, what they teach in professional wrestling school.... 😉
