East Coast Greenway from Newark to Jersey City

Submitted by FHarris on Mon, 06/10/2013 - 12:06pm

Took this yesterday and it is pretty overgrown and debris-challenged.  There are signs, but it is easy to miss one.  It's pretty marginal and not particularly kind to you or your bike. I tried Belleville Turnpike (Rte. 7) a few years ago, and it was much better than this was.  Any other Newark--Jersey City routes out there that people like?

Update on Putnam Trail Vote

Submitted by Slugger on Mon, 06/10/2013 - 11:35am

Apparently, a vote will happen on the Putnam Trail tomorrow, Tuesday June 11. A running club is trying to get people "out in force" to save this "nature trail" (which, remember, is a railroad right of way and has railroad ties left in place, and they are not advocating leaving it in or returning it to any sort of natural state). If you aren't already planning to go to the NYCC meeting, please plan to attend to lend support for a MULTI-USE plan, rather than letting one group have its own private playground.

Who designed this race course ?

Due to weather, we have to cancel.  Unfortunately, we will not be able to reschedule.

Thank you to the planners, and to all of our friends in NYCC.

See you all on the road......
