Anyone of you guys took a part in the Bergen County Bicycle Tour organized by the Bicycle Touring Club on North Jersey on June 5th (last Sunday)???
I wonder where to find more pictures from the event.

Thanks, Charlie. Nice pictures and article!
I was in the first 12-miles ride group that left about 1/2 hour after your group(s). Before the ride at least three photographers were taking pictures of our group (13 bicyclists), but I cannot find any way to get in touch with them.
I wish you all the best!

Brick here and do a lot of riding in and around freehold. Have u been on the henry Hudson trail? Great place to ride with only 3% grades. We've been trying to get out at least once a week and ride some good places and last week tried a single track off road area. Let me know if u are interested in riding.

Feel free to pm me if u want to get a ride going. Road bike is fine for the HHT. The dirt stuff you would want the mtb. We can get a group ride down the trail and back downtown. Maybe grab lunch in town.

Benjamin_E29: what part? I'm from Perth Amboy; we have a few members meet up every now and then (gotta get a ride with Neil soon).
@southpw: wish I could join in; i'll be in Long Valley this weekend.
Btw: Tour de Long Valley is coming up at the end of this month in Long Valley, NJ 40 mile and a 20 mile course. Hopefully some NJ members signup and join in
After the 4th of July weekend anyone from the Middlesex and Monmouth area let me know if you wanna get a weekend ride going, maybe we can set something up.

By the way, what's up with Frenchtown?
I did a mini-tour of Bucks County this weekend, and saw a smattering of roadies. On Sunday morning I crossed the bridge to Frenchtown and there were like 2 dozen cyclists all kitted out.
Is it a big destination because of Rt 12 or something?

Any south jersey riders familiar with the Gloucester County College trails? I was nearby the other day and rode through but couldn't figure out where to hit the trails?

starting the hill/tails depends on your entrance to the Gloucester county college parking lot!
from st rt 55, exit onto alt 553 towards Woodbury. turn rt at light (Wawa will then be on your left, trophy store to right) to first road past bridge (Tanyard rd, +/- 0.01 mile). you'll go past Salina rd 4 way stop to GCC entrance. if you go past GC Voc/Tech school you've gone too far.
in GCC property, you will go Around a Bend past a security post to your left, the gym/athletic facility behind it. go to the first parking area past secuity post. park.
ride back to this Bend but go foward into the trails. there are some interesting hills there.
have you been to "Lost Lakes" in Mantua twsp yet?
have fun!

Hi all; I moved down to Cherry Hill from Scarsdale, NY at the end of May. Just made the conversion to road biking (after a 10 year hiatus from mountain biking). Recently started doing the Team Evesham rides on Sundays. Any other good rides around Southern Jersey?

Keswick Cycle out of Cherry Hill runs group rides, also go to PrincetonFreeWheeler.com for a list of clubs in NJ. There is one by you, I think it's called the South Jersey Wheelman but there will be a link for them and others on the PFW website.
