Delaware-Raritan Canal Coker Ride

Hi all

I am organizing the 2nd Canal Coker Ride in Piscataway New Jersey USA.
June 10 2006 at 11 AM Johnston Park at East Jersey Olde Towne Village.

This will be a week after the LBI Unithon.

We had one 2 years ago and it was a lot of fun.
For those who made it last time… we will be covering the same route.

David

Nice

I’ll check that date with Renie.

Adam

I’ll be there. The first ride was fun. We should do them more frequently. Once every two years just isn’t enough.

i would love to go to this. it sounds fun. whats it like? (from someone who has been there)

Hi, Nick.

It’s basically a distance Coker ride. It’s a casual and pleasant ride beside the canal and river on a smooth, flat, hardpacked dirt pathway. There are overhanging trees, birds, and beautiful sunny skies (guaranteed). It’s a nice get-together. You should come.

Hi David
it’s teddy from grant’s tomb the kid with the long hair
I will be there on my new coker
Thanks

I did one (the first? second?) with David and enjoyed the pleasantness of the shade and the interesting canal path. We all bought lunch at a local deli halfway and ate it out on the benches. Perhaps someday I can make another. :slight_smile:

I think there was only one ride. I forgot about the lunch on the benches! That was such a great day. It won’t be the same without you.

P.S. - By “interesting”, do you mean the snake? (Dave Bagley doesn’t want me scaring people by mentioning the ess en ay kay ee)

Well, I meant the canal-ditch-shape-topography thingie stuff, really. I quite forgot about the ess enn ay kay eee.

The weather forecast looks good.

David

Adam

We did 20 miles on the canal ride yesterday. It was really fun. Best of all was the pleasure of meeting Teddy and Adam. Thanks, David, for organizing this wonderful day! And thanks for the refreshments (even though the cookies had trans fat). :slight_smile:

Let’s do another one soon!

Thanks David I had a wonderful time riding with everybody.

Yeah I had a good time too. Thanks for showing up.

Theres lots more to see… I have only seen another 5 miles or so of the trail and definitely want to do more of it.

I’ll try to plan something after the NAUCC.
