Today it was only Barry and I and we did not want to go far. We went for a change of pace and did the hills on Boundary Road and Conover Road, we then hit the Henry Hudson trail at the old Marlboro Airport property and rode that into Matawan (to relax).
We came back the same way, and for some reason it seemed like we never hit the downhills and it was always uphill. None the less, we made it back albeit a little out of breath.
I do have to apologize as there are no photos due to the inclement weather.
Below is the route we took today:

Bike Trip From Marlboro NJ to Manasquan
Today (9/13/08) it was only Barry and I and we decided to go to Manasquan (via the bike path from Allaire Park).
Typically along the way we got a little lost so, Barry whipped out the trusty map and we were back on our way.
We seemed to find our way and eventually hit Allaire Park. This is a real nice park with campgrounds and their own railroad!
We meandered around a while but eventually found the bike path to Manasquan. The trip is pretty short (around 6 miles) from Allaire but you do pass by this very nice, quaint looking"General Store" that seemed to be doing a brisk business this morning.
We eventually hit Manasquan so I figured I need to take a picture by the water (and also one of the HS to prove we were there). We also made a four legged friend along the way so I took a photo of him while he watched us ride by.
Looks like we rode about 42 miles (I forgot to reset my odmeter on the ride to Manasquan). Lastly, of course Barry had to some ice cream on the ride home.
As always photos of these biking expeditions are available at http://schecky.smugmug.com/ under the Bicycling Trips link.
Till Next Week's Ride (perhaps the SIBA Pumpkin Patch Pedal 2008?).

PS Please excuse the photo quality on these photos since I did not have a good camera with me today.
