Hello everyone,

I agree that yesterday's ride was very enjoyable. I look forward to seeing everyone on the next ride!

Looking to get back into it and certainly no speed demon. This saturday is no good but my cousin and I were looking to hit something up on Sunday morning. Is there another group that would go out on Sunday? We would be around the Somerville/Hillsborough area.

I might be able to do a ride on sunday, but it would have to be either at 630am or after 2pm, and would have to be at 6M. Let me know if interested.
 
Excellent! It would probably be after 2pm if thats ok by you. Appreciate you making the time for us.

No problem, I will double check with my other half and will let you know for sure. There are 3 possible starting points to 6M. I prefer the rt 27 lot. My hubbie prefers the canal lot. Do you have a preference?

Ive never been to Six Mile but Im guessing the Rt 27 lot might be the easiest.
 
i have to drop the dad off at the airport but i'll try to make 6 mile at the 27 on Sunday too...2:30?
 
OK 😀
This sunday 16th
230pm
6M
rt 27 lot


Good?

I will post up if there are changes, otherwise we will be there.
 
Are you riding the whole park to Canal Lot and back?

I would like to, but I will need to make that call on Sunday, depending on the group. I have no problem taking people back to the lot if they get tired, and letting the Hubbie lead the rest of ya...but sometimes he loses people :hysterica
 
ill be there, have to use my spare bike, its not very good but hey, neither am i. i may be a tad late, ill try to catch up if i miss you guys
 
Thanks to everyone that showed up today 😀 we had 11 people in our group. I want to say thanks to everyone who was patient while we tried to fix my chain :cry: and sorry things did not go as planned, but sometimes things like that happen on the trails. A big special thanks to that fella Bill who stopped by and managed to replace that pesky pin. Thanks to you I was able to actually finish the ride!

A few of you had to leave early, and I hope you returned to the parking lot with smiles on your faces.

CJ, your kids are fantastic and welcome to ride with me anytime!

I have a short video too, will link when its done uploading...

awesome group shot and video. I wish I can join you guys but sunday is the busiest day of my week. I hope theres a next group ride.
 
Hello,
Are you going to have any rides at Stephens State Park or Kittatinny Valley State Park?

:hmmm:
Not in the very near future. I have not ridden those trails enough (or ever) to be familiar with them. When I lead groups I prefer to be VERY familiar with the trails so I can call out what to expect as well as knowing shortcuts for the fastest way back to the lot in case of any problems. I also like to take my groups to places without anything too intimidating for the beginner crowd to try.

I will have to make it a point to ride those places sometime soon to check them out.
