Tim and I meet up at the Kat.Tim lead as we went North on Rt.32,where we ran into a shut down bridge.We ignored the “do not enter” signs,went though the construction site,and got on a canal bike path and headed North.Knobbies would have been nice.Got back on Rt.32,crossed over to Stockton,and took Rt.532 to Flemington.Lots and lots of bikes and the burgers were great.On the way home we hit 295 were Tim made like Racer Jack,”tickets,I don’t care about no stinking ticket”.We were home in no time.

Jeff, Jack, Oscar & Dee, George and Wayne took ‘Tour the Pines’ Ride throughout the Pine Barrens.
I (Tim) actually went to check in at the Polar Bear Run – two reasons – I’m still in the running for my patch and it was only 12 miles from my house!
Triumph Motorcycles has a recall of certain models of the 2010 Sprint GT / ST. More Info:

Went up to check in at the Chatterbox in Augusta. Little chilly but it warmed up nicely. Not a very big Triumph contingent.
On the way back I tried hugging the Delaware River from Rt 80 down to Trenton. Not an easy feat but did come across a nuclear power plant that was pretty interesting (and huge). Puts Japan’s problems pretty close to home.
Gorgeous day, great ride up to Long Valley. Jeff, Wayne, Tim and Wayne’s friends – the South Africans? I can’t think of their names but if someone reminds me I will update this post.
Stopped at a park on the way up for a quick pit stop. We were a little early for check in.
Lots of Bikes.
Rahway Polar Bear Run to Firehouse Pub. Not a very large Triumph contingent.
Photo from our ride last week to Allen’s Clam Bar – great food – just be careful of the fried clams! (bellies and all!)
