How flat is it?

South Dakota

Depending on where you ride you have to go quite a ways to rack up big elevation numbers. Just depends.

Pretty flat over all. There aren't a lot of hills but there are some nasty short climbs.

Only two-digit temperatures (95 degrees F) but with 95% humidity dear god.

Looks brutal (and fun).

Sometimes I ride with large groups of people.

A few from this season so far that I've been pleased with.

looks like hamsterdam from the wire

[MENTION=303015]Mumonkan[/MENTION] There are parts of the city that are fully reminiscent of "The Wire." There are full neighborhoods that are boarded up like that. It's quite sad, but this ride really shows you the city of Trenton (the good, bad and ugly).

yeah, jerseys got some real wild stuff. i think its facinating how varied it is

Totally. I can ride through one of the richest towns in my area, then find myself rolling through farmland and eventually the poorest areas. It's sort of weird.

where in NJ you from?

This park in downtown Coeur d' Alene has some great water features for the kids. If they had stuff like that when I was a kid, I would never have left the park.

He means, "what exit?"

North Idaho Centennial Trail where it passes through Riverstone park. It was 96f in da shade yesterday. I drank two liters on a 1.5 hour ride.

The guy (gal?) on the left was tripping out on my bike. He kept sniffing the tires and spokes.

That mallard's a dude. The one up front is his lady friend. Dang, y'all are hotter than Austin now.

[MENTION=328380]Wspsux[/MENTION] I live just outside of Philly in South Jersey. I'm originally from Bordentown (which is five minutes from Trenton).

....you're not wrong.

Ah, bummer. I'm way north when I'm riding in NJ.

102 f yesterday.

The trail turns right where it leaves the pic and then climbs to the height of that bridge in a very short distance. I made it up without stopping but had to hit the shade at the top.

I dig your bike and like that you made it to the top of the hill on it.

[MENTION=328380]Wspsux[/MENTION] Yeah, I'm in what is more or less south Jersey. I'm far enough away from the Parkway that the "what exit?" cliche doesn't apply as easily.

Thanks!
