Group Ride Sunday 12/11 Hartshorne 9am

[Mare]

If I join your group do I get a brownie?

I’ll give everyone a brownie to show them down.

Edit: slow them down 🤦‍♀️

 

[Mare]

@Mare45 remember who always texts you about rides. Save me a brownie/cookie/whathaveyou.

You bet! Plenty of whathaveyou 😂

 

[asm]

I'm in. My first MTBNJ group ride.

 

[xmonger]

Count me in as well. I'm looking forward to meeting you fine folks and having a fun group ride.

I'd like to say thank you to the organizers. Your efforts are sincerely appreciated.

Mileage may vary.

We'll have beginner, intermediate and advanced rides with a pace to match the group.

Mine, park is fun

Last year there was only one group as the forecast was iffy, but we did about 16 miles, and were out for around 3 hours (total, including stops), so hopefully that will give you a ball park idea.

The beginner ride will be shorter and slower.
Probably 2 hrs with lots of stops. Or less. Time my vary.

SS is in

I might be in but iffy weather forecast this year too. "Rain showers in the morning will evolve into a more steady rain in the afternoon. High 46F. Chance of rain 80%."

Low to mid 40s with steady rain? I'm too wimpy for that. Out.

I believe the wet weather is supposed to roll through on Sunday afternoon into Monday morning.

 

[THATmanMANNY]

It’s been more than 8yrs. I’m going to try!

 

[eragot]

Looks like I'll be going you all. I can lead or sweep any ride if help is needed. But you all don't know me that well. So I'll just chill with the quicker group I guess.

See you tomorrow.

 

[xmonger]

Does anyone know what trails are expected to be run by each of the groups?

Thanks in advance.

The exact trails? No. But probably Huber and hartshorne.

 

[pooriggy]

The ride is on.

While it won't be sunny out, the ride will not be a washout. In the event it looks like it will be a washout I'll cancel it by 7:30am tomorrow. If I post nothing the ride is on.

See you in the morning.
