Mumonkan I'll have to look into it. I'm down here in south Jersey. This was in Rancocas woods which is super close to home, so it's easy to come home from work, grab the bike, and head over. I'm still trying to get used to ripping around in the woods, it's super fun but new to me. I hit a bunch of sandy spots that really sapped speed, too. By the end of my ride I was feeling more confident.
allaire is south-ish, its near point pleasant
sounds like youre close to
wharton which has a good flat 20 mile loop with no crazy ****. i havent been there myself but it sounds like it would be great on the cross bike, and being similar to allaire in terrain it should be a blast
