timmhaan, I feel your pain. Maybe we'll find a secret passageway someday.
I really don't understand what you want?? You want to cycle from Hoboken to Montclair but not from Newark to Montclair? All you're doing is taking the train 1 stop to Newark Broad street from Hoboken. This will leave you in Newark New Jersey and you'll be able to safely cycle all the way to work.
In fact, taking a folding bike up there is not too hard because I've done it! Once you get beyond those mountains and past the sprawl, it's pretty much level ground.
