Weekend plans

After a quiet weekend for TTC activites, we've got a full slate coming up this week. 

  • Tuesday - another great night of trail work at Jungle Habitat for I Dig Tuesdays! Meet us at the JH gate at 6 p.m., bring your work gloves, bug spray and water.
  • Wednesday is Ladies night on Clinton Road! 6 p.m., at the old Village Square Inn Parking lot on Route 23 in Newfoundland. Come on out and join the girls on their weekly ride down Clinton Road.
  • So, you don't fall under the proper category for the Ladies Night ride ... Join us Friday instead, for our usual Friday Night party on Clinton Road. Same place, same time, same amount of fun!
  • Saturday August 6th - for those who have been looking for a weekend trail work day, here we go! Meet us at the Jungle Habitat gates at 8:30 a.m. - we'll be working by 9. We will be all wrapped up by 1 p.m. Bring your gloves, bug spray, water - we'll have the rest! If you miss us at the gate, call Dave VW at 973-390-6915 and he'll let you know where to find the group. Racers - get those PayDirt hours in now! 
  • Saturday August 6th is also one of our great Kids Mountain Bike Ride and Skills days at Jungle Habitat. Meet us at 10 a.m., we'll try out some skills activities, take a loop around the kids race course, and then off for a longer ride for those who are game! We'll have snacks, water, and swag, thanks to TTC member Tim Warchol. Bring your own kid, your kid's friend, your neighbor's kid - we'd love to have them all! We could still use a few volunteers for the 2+ hours we'll be there - please won't you consider joining us?
  • Sunday, August 7, TTC members Steve and Martha Boshart will be leading a most awesome ride! It is a moderate paced 50 mile, no drop, regroup after hills road ride, leaving from Town Cycle at 9 AM. It will go out to Sugarloaf, NY, where we will grab a breakfast burrito at the old Train Station deli. We'll head back using Warwick back roads. We'll make a stop in Warwick Village at Grappa Market for Gatorade and Italian cookies before climbing back over the mountain back into West Milford. Expect about 48 miles with some moderate climbing, and 4 hours of riding with the breakfast stop. Rain will cancel as Martha doesn't like to ride with wet glasses! If someone wants to avoid the last climb home, they can break out at Warwick farmers market if they leave a car at Village beforehand.
So there you go, a smorgasbord of rides for all! Stay tuned for anything else we might cook up for the weekend!
