Morris Cnty NJ: Who wants to ride with me?
I am just feeling around to see if anyone would be interested in going for a group ride somewhere in Morris Cnty NJ. I am not the fastest of riders and do vary between a casual pace and a somewhat sped up pace. I just like to get out there and enjoy the air. If anyone wants to take a roll let me know and we can set something up. Im not too good with the hills yet but I am getting there.

I'd be up for it as well, depending on where in Morris County you are and looking to ride. I live in West Orange, and new to road biking as well. Just starting to get my stamina up a bit to deal with the hills.

Same boat as you, just started roadbiking also. Where in Madison do you work? I work for Atlantic Health in Morristown. Where do you normally ride? Giralda Farms is not too bad if you do the short route.

Hey I'm close where you work at .. I work for Wyeth - Giralda Farms. I normally ride after work during Tues or Thurs, where I lived in Edison. But I could always bring my bike with me and change at work.

LOL. The woman who rents the upstairs of my house also works for Giralda Farms. Thurs or Tues are good days for me. It makes more sense with this heat to ride late in the day like around 7 because of the stupid heat and humidity. You ever ride the path around Giralda?

Hi guys, I also live in West Orange and work in Morristown. I'm a slow rider and just coming off an injury so I don't think I can go for group rides. But you guys should check out Marty's Cycle site for some routes
https://martysreliable.com/page.cfm?pageID=27
Maybe I'll come out with you guys mid to late September...
