Dates to save!

Just a reminder about our annual Thanksgiving Day MTB ride at Wawayanda (Thursday, Nov. 27, for those of you who need to be reminded) - we'll get exact times out shortly! A great way to get ready for all that turkey and pie - don't miss it!!

Second - save the date - it's time for the annual TTC dinner! Open to all 2014 TTC members and all those who join for 2015! This year we're looking at Friday, January 30th - High Crest Lake Lodge. Stay tuned for the particulars. In the meantime, start sending in your pictures - you know how we love them!!! 

Lastly, if you're looking to get a ride in this weekend, TTC's Nick is heading to 6 Mile - meet at the Canal Rd. lot at 11:30 on Saturday. Mountain bike or CX bike will do - and bring those hand warmers! 

Stay warm, everyone!!! 

Thanksgiving news and notes

• Although the weather doesn't look awesome for our T-day ride at Wawayanda tomorrow, nothing will be falling from the sky (rain or snow). It will, however, be chilly. We aren't planning on cancelling - some hardy (or foolhardy) riders will be at the boat launch at 8:30, cold be damned. If you come, bring all the warm riding gear you have - you'll need it! 

• Looking for way to work off that turkey and pie? How about a ride at 6 Mile in Franklin, Somerset County, on Sunday, Dec. 1. We'll meet at 11 a.m. at the Canal Road parking lot. We’ll ride a few hours at an easy to moderate pace. If folks want to bring the kids out, there’s the flat & easy fun D&R Canal towpath right there too. Definitely a variety of riding for everybody!

          Precipitation of any kind on Sunday cancels. Check back with us early Sunday if you have               any questions about weather! 

• Save these dates! 
• December 22 - one of our favorites - the annual TTC Reindeer Ride! Exact time and place TBD, but block the day out NOW!
• January 17 - our annual TTC dinner! We'll get you more details as we get closer, but make sure you don't miss out on a great evening of food and friends! 

Among the many, many things we are thankful for this year, as always, our TTC family is right near the top of our list. Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! 

A cancellation and a new ride!

Unfortunately, due to the weather, we're going to cancel tomorrow's ride at 6 Mile - (aside - 3-6" of snow before Halloween - seriously?), but we'll definitely plan another trip there, so stay tuned. 

As for a different ride, our own BJ Kisch is planning a bit of an epic road ride on Sunday, October 30. Join him if you dare! He'll be leaving from the Walter Bergen School on Otterhole Road at 12 p.m. He's planning a mass start time trial (TT), with a catch - he'll explain more on Sunday! From there it'll be down to Pompton Plains, Montville, 4 Corners, Kinnelon and back. Looking to do about 50 miles at a moderate pace in total. Winner of TT will get a pat on the back and accusations of doping! If you want more info or to let BJ know that you will be attending, drop him a line.
