There’s this German restaurant near Fort Dix that I see every once in a while and think, “I’d like to try that.” So I figured out a bike ride.

You need lots superlatives when describing this Hindu temple, or Mandir, in Central Jersey. Largest outside India is one.

I’m nominating Ashton Brewing in Middlesex Borough as the place to find some really weird — as in unusual, in the nicest way — beers.

We braved the mud and the wind — oh that wind! — to reach the Druery Brewery using the D&R Canal towpath and the Lawrence Hopewell Trail.

February temps in the 60s … had to get outside. And part of that included checking out the progress on the extension of the Henry Hudson Trail into Freehold.
For you TL;DR types, this 0.4-mile addition could be open in two months, so the end of April.

I’m excited to bike the Ohio to Erie Trail in June …. or should I say Erie to Ohio?

There’s now a paved wide pathway from the Mount Rose Preserve parking lot off Carter Road in Hopewell Township, NJ, to the Mount Rose section of the Lawrence Hopewell Trail.

Let me start by saying that for a couple of my friends, anything beyond a Michelob Ultra can qualify as a “weird beer.” So don’t be offended by the term. As for a cherry-red one with coarse white sugar crystals lining the rim — maybe we can all agree that it’s at least unusual?
Continue reading “A bike ride for a ‘festive’ glass of ‘weird beer’ in Morrisville”This trail won’t win any beauty awards. But it’s a stress-free route through suburban sprawl in Bucks and Montgomery counties.
I’ll be honest: the 202 Parkway Trail in Pennsylvania’s Bucks and Montgomery counties is never going to win any beauty awards. That said, it blazes an almost stress-free path through suburban sprawl. That’s worth a lot.
Continue reading “I biked the 202 Parkway Trail — here’s what it’s like”The Delaware and Lehigh Trail is Pennsylvania’s other long-distance bike trail. Four of us headed out for two days of biking fun (and a few pinball games).
The Delaware and Lehigh Trail is Pennsylvania’s other long-distance bike trail, much less known than the Great Allegheny Passage but almost as long now (and will be longer once it’s finished).
I’ve biked the southern half of the D&L, from Bristol (outside Philadelphia) to Bethlehem. With some sunny and warm days in the forecast for November, it was time to tackle another big chunk.
