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.

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

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...

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.
