Tom H posted a 40-or-so-mile-ride today on the Princeton FreeWheeler Ride Calendar, calling it "moderately hilly through the Sourlands and along a few rivers". His start, near the quarry on Kingston-Rocky Hill Road, is about ten miles from home for me, so I decided to ride in and back, and turn the day into a metric nearly-century, almost 100 kilometers.
I met Eric H riding in.
At the start:
I'd seen the elevation diagram for the planned route:
...and decided I was worried about that big hill about a quarter of the way in, so I'd put the easy gears on the bike, but I needn't have worried; the diagram was deceiving, and we went over with decent breath and strength (although with the usual excess of complaining).
It was a glorious, beautiful day.
They can't all be like this, but I wish they could.
You do, too.
