It’s the Last Weekend of the Month so it’s time for a
Mixed Surface Ride!
However,
If you’re not in the mood for a “mixed surface” ride or don’t have an appropriate bike (24c tires are not the best for this ride) we have an Road Bike Option, too!
Mixed Surface.
The Susquehanna Warrior Trail follows the Susquehanna River from West Nanticoke to the Steam Electric Station in Salem Township (a/k/a the Berwick Nuke). This ride will start at the shop and “officially” go to Shickshinny. If you have the legs and want to go as far as the Steam Electric Station, be our guest. As I recall, round trip to Salem Twp from the shop is in the neighborhood of 50 miles total.
The Road Bike Ride
Rt 29 & Chase Road
(I’m still trying to get this ride done)
Another ride for just about all levels of fitness.
South from Around Town Bicycles crossing the Susquehanna River into Plymouth and following US Rt 11 South to PA 29.
Route 29 is a gentle climb to Chase Road.
While some of us will turn around at Chase Road, those looking for more miles and additional challenges can follow Chase Road to Jackson Twp and beyond.
The weather looks to be cool to start with very little (as in single digit percentage) chance of rain. Although, weather prediction is an art, not a science, so it always pays to watch the weather reports.
Both of this week’s rides leave Around Town Bicycles at 7:30 AM.
