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/

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.
