Steve’s Bike Blog

This is the ride that I do most often. It is about 20 miles and provides a decent work out with two pretty hard hills as well as very nice scenery out in the country side around the swamp. It is documented in the Biking in New Jersey website as part of the Great Swamp Ride. I have two versions of this loop that I do, loop 1 is the shorter of the two but has a bit of a nicer section down a small country road. Loop 2 is about a mile longer, it goes past some nice farms/mansions and adds a couple of hills to the mix. I usually stop about half way at a bridge in the swamp and have a Cliff bar and take a short rest.
