Title: Why I ride an hour away to ride.... Post by: Mugen939 on April 29, 2012, 06:50:29 PM Every time I tell friends and coworkers that I ride an hour away from my town to ride my motorcycle they laugh and call me nuts. I guess people who don't ride will never understand.
this is why........ sunday ride (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bt7LMF4EotE#) the second one is kind of long but it really shows an incredible stretch of road here in New Jersey. Sunday ride part 2 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2o_1w_v8PRg#) Title: Re: Why I ride an hour away to ride....

Title: Re: Why I ride an hour away to ride.... Post by: Mugen939 on April 29, 2012, 07:08:52 PM BLeh!!!! Just noticed that. Apparently you can only check it if you log out of youtube even embedded videos work if you're logged into another session. Weird.....working on another solution....

There are some good stretches around PA-611 in the stroudsburg and delaware water gap area.. This is up in northern NJ area, near the NY/PA borders. Let's see if this one works. http://vimeo.com/41266051 (http://vimeo.com/41266051) Title: Re: Why I ride an hour away to ride.... Post by: lethe on April 30, 2012, 02:58:29 AM I know exactly where these are. ;D
Title: Re: Why I ride an hour away to ride.... Post by: sgollapalle on April 30, 2012, 05:37:57 AM What route is it? or is it a secret location that we just have to ride together one of these days..
Also, Whats the speed limit and [leo] activity levels? Title: Re: Why I ride an hour away to ride.... Post by: Grrrly on April 30, 2012, 05:51:12 AM I know exactly where these are. ;D me too, too many bikes though, bring out the po po.... I used to head further north into the Catskills for more technical and fun roads. Now I don't even ride on the street anymore other than commuting.... but watching these make me want to ride north soon. Title: Re: Why I ride an hour away to ride....

Now I don't even ride on the street anymore other than commuting.... but watching these make me want to ride north soon. Very true...I'm usually up there at 8 am or earlier. Heading back home by 11, not many bikes or cars or police up there at that time. ;D But the catskills does have some really nice roads as well. Especially near the ashokan dam area. Title: Re: Why I ride an hour away to ride.... Post by: mookieo2 on April 30, 2012, 09:04:33 AM We're in NY to. I'm from Long Island and that is why if I go on a ride it usually ends up being 500 miles.

Especially near the ashokan dam area. some good ones with nearly nobody else on them on my side of the Delaware too. Lately I've been searching out the unpaved ones but in the process have found some more good paved ones as well Title: Re: Why I ride an hour away to ride....

So nice to see a rider in full gear riding the bike at a nice pace on the street [thumbsup] Title: Re: Why I ride an hour away to ride.... Post by: Vishwacorp on April 30, 2012, 11:19:48 AM Nice videos! [thumbsup]
I usually ride up the Saw Mill or 9W in NJ and then ride around the Bear Mountain area but I really need to find some new routes. [Dolph] |
