Hey Guys,

I'm new to mountain biking and looking to find a group in the Freehold area that wouldn't mind a new rider tagging along. I am about 15 minutes from Allaire State Park, so I will spending a lot of time there and surrounding trails. Hit me up if you are cool with a beginner rider in the group. Thanks.

Welcome Anthony!

Springtime means the Tuesday Night Allaire Beginner Friendly rides will start. Usually mid-April if I recall.
You'll meet some good people that will help with finding your way around the park, and improve your riding skills.
Watch here for the announcement!

Welcome. Allaire is an easy place for beginner mtbers. Check out the Tuesday beginner ride when they start up in the spring.
@Mitch is usually there on wknds if you need a tour.
 
Thanks for all the info so far. This is exactly the type of info I was seeking. Hopefully I can build up some skills quickly and be able to join you guys at some point.
 
Welcome:)

Allaire is a most excellent park to break into the sport with. The more you share with the group about what/when you ride, what you enjoy, what you find challenging and where you are fitness wise... the better we’ll be able to help.

Welcome. I ride a Trek Roscoe and it's a fun bike. Highly recommended. I'm also close to you. I ride Clayton, Mercer, and Allaire the most. Have fun!

Just picked up my new bike.... ended up with a Cannondale Habit 4. I couldn't pass up the deal I got at Brielle Cyclery. Awesome place with great customer service.

Now I just need to work on my skills and endurance, hopefully I will be able to join some of you guys by years end. Thanks again for all the advice.
