Ride Schedule

Let's go up to Franklin Lakes first from there is mostly rolling hills and after we go via ESRR back down to GRDP.If there is a need for rest/stop on the way we will find one. We always regroup on hills, turns and our speed will be to keep the group together. [ Ride will not go in rain or on wet roads. Rides with 20 or more riders will be split into 2 or more groups. ]

Central Park: See GPS for route. Be prepared and capable. Down westside greenway to 72nd St to enter Central Park. Once in the park, you may ride as hard and as fast as you want until 8:30am, where we will regroup at Adam Clayton Powell Jr Blvd park entrance (110th st at base of Harlem Hill) and return via Riverside to Ft Wash Ave. Post-ride café at Paris Baguette in Fort Lee.

Let's ride up to Tappan and stop at Sunrise Bagels in Oradell on the return. Regrouping as needed so no one is dropped. Moderate pace, likely average around 16.5 MPH [ 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 me for a fun, no drop ride over Bradley to Nyack. Second Breakfast at mile 22. At the upper end of rolling. Probably a middle B pace. It's not July any more dress accordingly. If the first person to sign up wants a later start time please let me know. [ Ride will not go in rain or on wet roads. Rides with 20 or more riders will be split into 2 or more groups. ]

This route is a slight twist to one we did a few months ago. A few miles shorter and one steep hill eliminated. Rest stop at the Oldwick General Store. Expect a level of effort similar to a "B" road ride. Regrouping as needed so no one is dropped. [ Ride will not go in rain or on wet roads.

Attention C* and Strong C Riders. There's nothing like the Holiday Season in Mahattan, so let's head out and take it all in. Among the places that we'll be visiting are Hudson Yards, the holiday lights displays at Macy's Herald Square and Saks Fifth Avenue, Bryant Park, Central Park (including a Christmas Market) ... and of course, the World Famous Christmas Tree at Rockefeller Center. The lights will be turned on the 4th, so this will be a very "FRESH" event. With all these awesome stops this will be a full day adventure that tourists would be paying big bucks for ... but it's free with your BTCNJ Membership. Note that while the ride is being advertised as C*, it is because we will be getting off the Manhattan bikeway and navigating the streets of Midtown Manhattan. In view of the traffic and multiple stops, the riding pace will be somewhere in the cusp between C and C*. Hence, strong C riders that are comfortable riding in Manhattan are welcome to join us. Though we have good security guards, bring a lock, just in case! Note that terrain is neither flat nor rolling, but urban. [ Ride will not go in rain or on wet roads.

Last of the Gravel Friday Series: Graveling to the Cider Mill Farm. Bring your climbing legs and your downhill smile. [ Ride will not go in rain or on wet roads. Rides with 20 or more riders will be split into 2 or more groups. ]

Meet at Overlook Lodge access from the upper parking lot
