Weekend planning

OK, here's hoping the weather gods will let us have a full ride schedule this weekend! This is what we have in store -

Friday - our usual weekend warm-up, the Friday night Clinton Road ride. Meet us at 6 p.m. at the Village Square Inn, Rt. 23, Newfoundland. We always have all different ability levels, so don't be a chicken - come out and ride!

Saturday - Club member Mike Moskowitz will lead a beginner/moderately paced mountain bike ride at Waywayanda State Park on Sat. a.m. Meet at 7:30 a.m. at the boat launch parking lot. This is a great ride for newbies or for those who haven't ridden much lately, so get up early and get it in gear! In case of rain, we'll ride in a light drizzle only - any more that, we'll pull the covers back over our heads.

And finally, on Sunday, Gerard and Tom will be leading a Clydesdale mountain bike ride through the wonderful and scenic watershed of northern NJ. The ride will leave Tom's house at 30 Gould Road around 11:00 AM on Sunday. Non-Clydesdales (anyone weighing less than 200 lbs) will be required to sign a "No Hammering Pledge" or submit to carrying enough sand and rocks in their Camelbacks to compensate for the lighter weight and even the playing field. Gerard says he's bringing the Knob Creek flask he won at the Kahl Triathlon, and the route will take us past a couple of local watering holes, so you may want to bring a couple bucks. It should be an interesting ride!

Any questions, let us know!
