OY! :mad: I was having a shitty day at work filled with nonsensical bureaucracy and mad ramblings by senior execs ... then I read this thread. OK, the world is a better place :)

Oh Noooo Folks, my apologies but my company has different plans for me tomorrow. I will be 5k miles away from NJ unfortunately. So no burgers and buns from me sadly. Have fun! Alex

This from first post on this thread: Needs an update methinks? ;)

<begin thread hijack> THAT's a great idea, the vest thing was getting old quick! Thanks ! Alex </end threah hijack>

Because of family and work I have limited riding time and now that it gets dark by 5:30 or so, I ride early mornings. I begin at 5:30 AM to 6:30 AM and do about 15 miles on the road. It may seem overkill but I have: • Blinky on seat post • Blinky on vest • Reflective vest (it says...

I assume you folks have also seen this? Not funny but wow! Since I'm a newb, I'm allowed to post this link without fear of "hey, we've seen this a billion times" or "that's not cool" :D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v3nkzjACUG4&feature=youtube_gdata_player These guys are pretty good...

... and this seems the most appropriate time to point out that elusive tidbit, that 800lbs gorilla no one is comfortable speaking of, that tiny little painful fact that hunters have those loud boom sticks that throw these lead things at fluffy little critters very very fast :getsome: Alex

Hey, thanks for the trail maps for both places. Clayton really seems like a nice place. According to Google's distance measuring tool, the entrance to the park as per the leaflet is 8.2 miles from my house so 16.4 miles round-trip plus a couple miles in the park, sounds very reasonable to do...

Welcome! Riding with one's offspring is a blast. Can't wait till mine are older. My 3 y/o is one of those adrenaline tasting competitive little ones who can't wait to get a proper bike but for now is just around the block riding. Good luck!

Sunday 9/26/2010: Left my house for my usual weekend early morning 10 miles around Millstone. Ventured to the park next to Charleston Springs Golf Course and decided to try the mainly equestrian trails. Well, they seemed a little narrower than what I would have expected for horsey trails but...

Welcome! Short reply cos I'm in class and getting odd looks from the instructor :rolleyes:

There is always this route :D http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distraction_osteogenesis Shown performed here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gattaca

More questions ... Wait ... two more questions: A cadence monitor is not a feature you'd need on a mountain bike I assume? Road bike yes, but I don't see the need for it as cadence is not something we are looking for to maintain? Am I correct here? Also, maps, I assume you can download...

Welcome ! :D

Wow! I had visions of me looking like a mad scientist trying to clean the reservoir while being given odd looks by my family. A relief indeed. Thanks !!
