This section of Pa on the Delaware has some great gravel and it’s not too far away. This route has 3 stream crossings.

Any chance you have a ride with GPS version?

Are there any routes around the Ringwood area that would qualify as gravel material? I can ride the fire roads in the park without issues but there's not much mileage. It would be nice to have white roads like the ones around Bedminster to ride for an extended number of miles...

Let me try this again...anything gravelly in Northern New Jersey? I hate the idea of driving 2 hours to ride a bike...

I can only do so much here. And he did say North Jersey, which it is. 😉

Assuming route 78 is the Mason Dixon line of NJ, it’s pretty darn north.

I was only aware of North, South and maybe Center...is that a 'new' Jersey?

Sounds fun, thank you. I'm getting the gist it's at least 1 hour drive from me to ride good gravel...I guess you can't have it all!

I'm from PA, so to me there are three NJ areas:
1. Suburb of Philadelphia
2. Suburb of NY.
3. barren no-man's-land in between.

Saying that really pissed off my ex-

I remember talking to her mother years ago... and growing up there was no "central NJ" ... just North Jersey and South Jersey that was anywhere below 78. Granted, when she moved to Plainsboro, the idea of living in South Jersey was incompatible to her psyche and "Central NJ" then became a thing. However, her mother still said she lived in South Jersey... partly just to annoy my ex-. I got along well with her mother.

Hey @Kaleidopete - Is Iron Mt Road "fixed" to the point a gravel bike could ride it?
I know part of Waway Rd was.

Gravelmap.com might help - might not.
