Kingston - Ringoes : 4:10:2009

Nice PFW ride this morning from Kingston, NJ.

The early morning was misty, but promising, and we weren't let down as it metamorphosed into a very nice day.

I certainly felt a lot better than my last Sunday ride. I could have done it all again ... yes ... really!!!

Basic stats:

Distance : 43.6 miles / 70.2km
Climb : 1,607ft / 409m

Thanks to John - ride leader.

Sunday in Neshanic : PFW Ride 20090913

A fairly hilly 51 miles this one. Thanks to Ken Leon, ride leader, and Steve Rowley who dragged me into the wind ... thanks again.



Aaron and I thought that discretion was the better part of valour when it came to the final climb so we scooted around. I got leg cramps for the first time on a bike ride. I thought I drank a lot, but might have been dehydrated before I started. Great ride tho'. Thanks to all participants.

*PS: there's a bit of a detour due to a missed turning at Three Bridges, but MapMyRide is quite hard to edit ... unless I'm missing something.

Support your LBS

Support your LBS - Local Bike Shop.

These guys are not in it for the money. Okay, they don't give stuff away, but pretty close to it.

Yes, they may cost a little more than your favourite online dealer, but generally you'll get good advice and you're more likely to get the right thing in the first place and most likely, be able to exchange it if it turns out to be not for you.

These are dealers I've found in my local area. If a dealer isn't here it's not because they're no good. I just haven't been there yet. And they're in alphabetical order:
