Mrejda, The Historian and I rode this route over the weekend. It's a 30-mile loop with 978 feet of climbing through rural NJ, starting and ending in Princeton. We had a blast!

I've fixed it up a little to reroute around some shenanigans in Washington Crossing State Park. At 13.8 miles, if you continue straight on Chirch Road instead of making the turn, you can take the Delaware and Raritan towpath for a mile down to Washington Crossing instead of using River Road.

Hey Neil...great to hear that you enjoyed the ride. I wish I could have met you guys but I was in the middle of moving, which is a bit difficult on crutches. I know those roads and they are great for cycling. I hope to be able to join you guys in the spring after my foot is healed, ehich the dr said it should be.

Cheers,

Brian

Yes, it was fun. I'd love to do it again.

Thanks again for planning the route, I had a lot of fun and found out my miyata should make due for my upcoming work commutes.
