First time leading…go easy on me. Beautiful warm weather for a tempo ride to Titanic. Sign up now! Lmk if you want to co-lead. Ride will not go in rain or on wet roads. ]
All of my BTCNJ friends are invited to join me for a beautiful fall ride in Morris County, and follow up with a post ride lunch at The Exchange in nearby Rockaway Borough, NJ (a 5 minute drive from the meeting place at Gardner Field), followed by a visit to the Mill Lane Tavern a short distance down Main Street. We're going to head north to Lake Hopcatcong, taking the excellent Weldon Road into Jefferson, then jump on Cozy Lake to Newfoundland, and return via Green Pond Road and Meriden. One quick rest stop at the Ding Dong Deli in Oak Ridge, near the right hand turn onto Cozy Lake. Please indicate if you are coming for the ride, the party, or both so I can get a headcount for the apres ride. Safety first and excellent group cycling skills appreciated! Ride will not go in rain or on wet roads. Rides with 20 or more riders will be split into 2 or more groups. ]
Nice ride to Smart World Coffee in Denville with a few hills to keep you warm. Will regroup on hills. Ride will not go in rain or on wet roads. ]
This a mostly flat ride with one big climb on Jacksonville that Eric Lopaty lead most Saturdays during the summer (thank you Eric!). We will do a lunch stop at Sorrentos at about the halfway point. The weather is looking ok for Saturday with rain in the early morning, but clearing up by our start time. NOTE: we did have some discussion about changing the start time but we are sticking with 9:45. Ride will not go in rain or on wet roads. Rides with 20 or more riders will be split into 2 or more groups. ]
Join us for a ride to Nyack with a stop at the coffee shop/bike shop in South Nyack. Ride will not go if temperature is below 45. This will be a true C* ride. Ride will not go in rain or on wet roads. ]
A favorite route starting in Ramsey, circling through the RGCC, then spinning through the surrounding towns. The later than normal start will give the roads a chance to dry given the possibility of overnight rain. There is no deli or water stop but we will take a short break at Campgaw if you want to bring a snack. Ride will not go in rain or on wet roads. ]
This is a version of Tom & Irene's route, with a couple of changes. It will include part of the Pompton Valley Rail Trail. Relaxed pace but no deli stop. If the weather forecast changes, or if it's too windy, we may cancel, but at this point it looks good. Hope you can join us. Ride will not go in rain or on wet roads. Rides with 20 or more riders will be split into 2 or more groups. ]
We’ll go exploring our barrio on paved roads, single unpaved tracks and everything in between. No GPS required Ride will not go in rain or on wet roads. ]

Join me on this short fun Monday ride with forecasted temperature around 50 degree at noon. Coffee/rest stop at Starbucks in Franklin Lakes. We always regroup on hills/turns and the speed will be to keep the group together a little slower because of colder temperature. Ride will not go in rain or on wet roads. ]
A little cooler temps and the forecasted "precipitation" clears out early so we can ride. We posted this ride with the bonus loop of 5 miles. The ride leaders will make a game time decision so the Green Village Deli will be at either mile 24 or 29 although you are free to make your own decision about the bonus loop. If you can keep a B pace on the flats (13 to 15 mph), we'll wait for you on any hills. Expect to finish with a low B average. Ride will not go in rain or on wet roads. ]

If you are off for Veterans Day and want a good bodywarmer ride, and great ice cream, this ride is for you. We will roll from Montclair to the Caldwells, stop at Little Falls great falls, and come to Garret Mountain reservation from the back. And the reward after? Ice cream at the famous Appelgate farm. About the ride: Short distance but has a few good climbs! Ride will not go in rain or on wet roads and below 45 degrees!!! ]

Weekly ride up wsrr and back on esrr. Mostly quiet suburban roads. Average speed 14.5-15.1. Nobody gets dropped! Ride will not go in rain or on wet roads. ]

Come join us on a nice relaxed ride on the Heritage Trail. We will stop for lunch at Mason's Market at the mid point. No GPS route is needed since this is just an out and back on the trail. Marcy and I will be riding gravel bikes but road bikes are fine since the trail is paved except for a very short section which is manageable. Ride will not go in rain or on wet roads. ]
The long-term forecast calls for partly sunny day and brisk temps. What not jump on that bandwagon and enjoy a fall foliage day. Besides, I am sure some of us need to anticipate the upcoming feasts and "pre-pay" those calories burn! Of course, a libation stop shall be included. Ride will not go in rain or on wet roads. ]
