It's frigin' January 4th. and there's not a speck of snow or ice to be seen. So I'm leading a group road ride from Cranberry LK on RT. 206 out towards the Del Water Gap, down through Millbrook village and up and over Tillman Ravine, back through Stillwater -Andover. 4+ hours 1 or 2 stops, moderate pace 14-15 mph. non drop. Bring lawyers, guns and money.
Rolling out of the park& ride at 10:03 AM (sharp)
All are welcome.
P.S. a great base mile ride !!!!

Kris,

Would love to join it's just you always do these rides so late. Sounds like fun though.

so what is this like 60 miles?

60-70, though the pace is steady and moderate. No hammerfest town line sprints, just a steady spin, with a good group of like minded riders. Come on out and give it a try, you'll have a great time.

Kirt I just spoke to Mr. JMG and he's going to show up. If Saturday doesn't work, I'll be doing a 3hr road ride on Sunday, starting around 7:34 AM, from the same place. JMG expressed interest in that one also. Come on out with us.

The warmer the earlier. I think I'm still off-road Saturday, but maybe Sunday on the road. When it's warm enough 6:00 or 6:30 sounds about good.

Hey Kris,

how was the ride? pace? who all showed? how often are you doing these rides? I put in 4 hours on the road today, but I couldnt make it up there, adds too much time to the ride day.

I drive by that velodrom in PA everytime i go to get my sister in Reading. I dont know what they are about. Worth bringing my bike the next time i make my way out there? I guess i could do some research but its always better to hear from those who have experienced it.

that sounds awsome. the most i have been out on the road is about 2.5 hours and about 40 or so miles. Averaged 18 or so i think. If you decide to put together another ride of this type. you think id survive? I know you said you will not drop anyone but i would hate to be that guy.

Hows the route...flat/hills/mix?
