25nd
Year! Inspite of the new name and start
location,
this is still the same basic route as the former Bridgeton Zoo
Century with some route inprovements and additions.
Parking, registration and the ride begin at Green
Branch
Park,
Pittsgrove,
New
Jersey.
The route is mostly on the scenic rural roads of Salem, Cumberland
and Gloucester Counties. The terrain is flat to slightly rolling
- good for any level
rider!
Ride it fast or slow, the choice is yours. Along the way there
are a few stores and delis on or near the route.
Start anytime between 8 am
to 10 am and ride at your own pace. The first half
has two route choices of
27 miles and 52
miles. The 52 mi route takes you through Alloway, Quinton
and historic Greenwich. These rides no longer
go to the Bridgeton Zoo. The second half has a
24 mile and a
49 mile route.
Combined with the first half this gives you a 76 or 101 mile option
for the day. The 49 mile route takes you north to Mullica Hill
and back with some challenging hill climbs between miles 20 to
35. All
routes bring you back to Green Branch Park where we will have fruit,
baked goods, hot dogs and plenty of liquids waiting for you under
a cool pavilion. We will have two water stops on each of the long
routes and one on each of the short routes.
Cue sheets, painted road markings
and sag wagon services are provided. In addition to food, the
entry
fee includes a give away item. In past years these have included
sew-on patches, high quality water bottles, first aid kits,
and tube patch kits. This year we are considering several
new items. Fee for South Jersey Wheelmen members is $10.00
which includes
the give away item. Club T-Shirts are available for purchase
at the ride. Come out and enjoy!
