[Bent] MARS ride in central NJ - Saturday, May 9

Fri May 8 23:33:05 EDT 2009

I just checked weather.com and it's supposed to get up to 79 tomorrow with  
showers late in the afternoon. The rain isn't supposed to start until 
around 4  PM, by which time the ride should be over, but I think it would be a 
good idea  to come prepared with rain gear anyway and pray to the rain gods 
for  mercy.

See y'all Saturday around 10:15 to 10:30.

We'll meet at 10:15-10:30 at the Day's Inn in Hightstown, NJ at exit 8  of 
the NJ turnpike and ride on mostly back roads to Freehold for lunch  and 
then visit 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 32-33 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 should be open from 12:30 to 4:30 PM.  Their 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 
turn right 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.
