The Longest Day - 208 Miles in One Day
Details
The Longest Day ride is an annual self supported, double century, double metric or century route (your choice). The majority of the riders prefer to do the double century (90%+). The double century starts in Port Jervis, NY, near the NJ High Point Monument, traverses the north-western part of NJ closely following Rt 206, then moves east in the plains of Central Jersey and then through the Pine Barrens down to Cape May. The first third is hilly, but nothing too terrible. In the central and southern part of the state the traffic drops off and and so do the hills. It rolls through the acres of farm lands and the NJ Pine Barrens. And, of course, the final destination, the Cape May Lighthouse. More information and registration: http://www.linuxha.com/other/non-ha/bicycle/LongestDay.html There will also be more details of the start and meet time as we get closer to the date, some arrangements are made as to whether or not we want to stay at a hotel close the starting area, if we want to get together and split the cost on what we need to self support our ride and our transportation back home.
