what time will you start
Sorry I forgot to mention a starting time. Let's meet at 10 AM and start
riding around 10:15-10:20. Here are the details:
Now that spring is really here, let's do the ride on Saturday 4/28. We'll
meet in Hightstown, NJ at exit 8 of the NJ turnpike and ride to Freehold for
lunch and possibly a visit to the Metz bike museum, which is filled with
interesting contraptions and drive mechanisms from bygone days (but no
recumbents when I visited the place a couple of years ago). The ride is about
25-30 miles, mostly rural and not too hilly. The usual MARS pace tends to average
in the 12-15 mph range, with pauses for slower riders to catch up.
The bike museum's website is: _http://www.metzbicyclemuseum.com/_
(http://www.metzbicyclemuseum.com/)
Directions: The starting point is easy to get to. From exit 8
(Hightstown-Freehold exit) on the NJ Tpk, get on route 33 east. Go about 2 blocks and pull
into the first entrance to the Days Inn parking lot. We'll meet at the west
end of the lot.
By train: Take the Northeast Corridor line to Princeton Junction. Take route
571 southeast into Hightstown (don't take the Hightstown bypass) and then
route 33 east past the turnpike entrance. Distance is about 6-7 miles from the
station.
