Level B: 15-17mph, 50 miles. Meet at Smithville NJ Historical Village. 615 E Moss Mill Rd # 16, Absecon, NJ 08205. The ride leaves at 10:00 am. PLEASE READ FULLY and CAREFULLY BEFORE REGISTERING: A fun cycling experience, and as usual, spiced up with historical, cultural and gastronomic elements. We are adventuring to the land of flat in Burlington County, South Jersey, exploring two historical towns; Smithville (https://www.tripsavvy.com/complete-guide-to-historic-smithville-new-jersey-5097215 )and Batso (https://batstovillage.org/ ) and ending the day with great seafood, steaks and cold beer on the water bays around the Atlantic Ocean. This is a BTCNJ (Bicycle Touring Club of North Jersey) ride and we decided to make it a multiple club ride. You will be given some time to explore both towns. IMPORTANT INFO: 1: Please DO NOT register unless you are committed to the full plan; the ride and the dinner. Group size will be limited based on restaurant and parking capacity and group safety concerns, and if you do not attend the dinner you are taking someone else’s place. Also, the restaurant needs exact count. Please remove your name immediately if your plan changed. The restaurant can’t afford wasting food these days and have extra staff unnecessarily. At the moment group size is LIMITED to 25! 2: We ABSOLUTELY MUST start on time due to the dinner reservation…so please plan ahead regarding driving time. We plan to start riding at 10:15, meaning ride briefing starts at 10, and dinner around 4pm. Once again, I promised the restaurant that we would be ready to be seated at 4, so we can’t be late. 3: Bring clothes to change into after the ride for dinner. 4: Bring CASH for the restaurant. I would recommend $75+, depending on your appetite (you will need much less, but just in case). Please be responsible for drinking and driving after. It will be one check per table based on what you consumed. Restaurant is Oyster Creek in Leeds Point, NJ: http://oystercreekrestaurant.com/ 5: Parking: This is the Greenhead season and therefore it was strongly recommended that we do not park near the restaurant but in the Village of Historical Smithville, which is 2 miles from the restaurant. That will be our start and end point and then driving to restaurant. 6: The ride: Given the flat nature of the area, this will be a strong B level ride. But still a B ride!! 7: We will have two brief refreshment stops, mainly for liquid and bathrooms and not long eating stops. I suggest that you have some lunch in your pocket since we have early wonderful dinner. 8: This is first and foremost a social ride, as we have always done. We want to have fun, we want to stay as a group and we insist on safety. No “Lone Rangers” please. Safety, group ride rules and club rules are nonnegotiable. Please follow them. If necessary, we will split the group. 9: Rain Day, Sunday Aug 7th More details will be provided. We are looking forward to seeing you all. Note: Ride will not go in rain or on wet roads or 90 degrees or higher. Cue sheets will not be available. The on-line route map is https://ridewithgps.com/routes/39757225.
