> Well, once more defying the cruel fates that bedeviled us last year, it's time to kick off the Jersey shore CR vintage ride season. I just know we will beat last year's weather jinx that saw rain during all 4 Jersey shore rides.
>
> Please join us on March 20 at 7 Presidents Oceanfront Park in Long Branch New Jersey at 10:30 am for a 22 mile ride to the Sandy Hook lighthouse and back. The roads should be mostly traffic free at that time of the day, and the temperature should have reached a reasonable degree. The route is the same as last year, a straight out and back along the Atlantic ocean, exceptionally flat except for a highway overpass type climb at the Sandy Hook park entrance. Fixed gear ideal, excellent to reasonable shoulders to ride on the entire way and almost impossible to get lost (well Paul Brodek did miss us when he started 10 minutes after we left, but how was he to know there were two paths into and out of Sandy Hook?).

Please note there are numerous lights on Hwy 36 so you should allow at least 20 minutes to cover the last 7 miles. If you're running a bit late, call my cell at (816) 838-9721.

> Pre and post ride swapping is encouraged. Lunch for those who wish it will be at a local restaurant (many to choose from). Guests who wish to visit Casa Adams and view the Bike Dungeon will be accomodated after lunch.
