Was completely off LI yesterday, visiting a buddy in Bucks County, PA, rode the Delaware Canal and Delaware -Raritan Canal paths. With 3 other riders, started just north of Stockton, NJ on the PA side, rode the PA side 16.5 miles down to Yardley, then return same way to Washingtons Crossing, came over to the NJ side and took the DRC trail north back to Stockton, across the river and back to car. 33 miles total, all on gravel, so a bit of a grind.
The west side path is far more enjoyable, in my opinion. More scenic and interesting. The east side, the DRC is wider, straighter and as result, boring at times. Less shade as well though we got out late so caught the sun at midday.
Theres a lot of trail to ride here though, easily 40 miles one way, more if you head NE on the DWC to New Brunswick, which is next on the agenda.
I do love riding dirt and gravel paths though !
