Daddies, too! Hi guys and dolls, It's been a very long time since I've posted here. Since I turned up pregnant last spring I pretty much gave up on reading and responding to posts. Mountain biking was out of the question and I did my riding indoors throughout the summer. By the time I was five...

Hey everyone, Jersey Girl Rides (Jig) is back. I missed it here! The first year of school is officially over and I am officially on vacation. It was hard but worth it, and year two of teaching is going to be a lot smoother now that I know a few things that trial-by-fire have burned into...

Found this while reading my September issue of Bicycling magazine. Never knew this went on right in my own backyard: http://www.sibike.org/ppp.html Looks like a fun ride, and I can vouch for the scenery. This is my home turf and I ride these roads at least 2 times a week. I will be out of...

I have the week off, and rain is forecast in abundance for most of the week. After I woke up today and figured I was not going to be riding, I started to straighten up the house and ran to the grocery store for some essentials. The Wegman's near Ronnie's house sells local NJ produce, and today...

Hello, I was thinking road ride for Saturday but my Kona kicked me the other day for not riding it often enough, and I thought I would try riding some new trails instead of the road. I've hiked at Wawayanda years ago, but am not familiar with the bike trails. From what I understand, new...

Hi, I've been using Routeslip for a few days now to trace my usual running and riding routes and plan new routes to try. I think it's great; I do not have to purchase a GPS now to get distance and elevation for my rides. Wonderful tool. Except for one thing: It Never Flippin' Works! The...

ChrisG and Sparta Brad, and everyone else, I have a JOB! I will be teaching English in high school this autumn, at the Paterson Charter School for Science and Technology. I received the contract today. Just wanted to say thanks to you two for the great advice and encouragement you gave me...

Since Jake thought it would be a good idea but has not gotten around to it, I thought I would start it for him. So here's the Being Green thread. What do you do to be Green? - drive a Saturn and am averaging 28.62 mpg - recycle metal, paper and plastic - re-use bags, jars, boxed and...

I mean this law in particular: 39:4-14.2, 39:4-10.11 Operating Regulations. Every person riding a bicycle on a roadway shall ride as near to the right roadside as practicable exercising due care when passing a standing vehicle or one proceeding in the same direction. A bicyclist may move...

last night I was riding around my local county park and in the midst of downshifting on a hill climb I threw the chain off granny gear. As usual it got lodged between the bb and granny, but this time it got stuck HARD. I was wrestling with it for several minutes on the trail before it finally...

Looking to Ride CR on Thursday night, 5:30pm, start from lot next to the ball fields on Route 525. Black Saturn sedan, bike racks. I am planning to ride at a beginner pace and to cover about 8-10 miles of trail.

Meet in parking lot of Jersey Knights Soccer Club off of Route 27. I will be the black saturn sedan parked in the far right corner near trail entrance. PM me if you need directions, details, cell number, etc. Hope to see you there. Jig

Don't know if anyone has seen this yet. My friend Angela told me about it the other night so I checked it out: NJ DOT - Bike Routes with Maps I hope to be able to do each one, though I will probably save High Point to Cape May for a time in the distant future when I can convince someone to...

Most of my life I have been admonished, as a female, never to undertake any kind of activity alone: Don't walk to the store alone - somebody might take you. Don't go to the mall alone - somebody might take you. Don't go to woods/park/camping/riding/running alone - you might get hurt and die, or...
