2 ways to do "Two Loops from Lumberton"

Lumberton2LoopsBakery - 18/27 miles. The first 18 mile loop uses Hilliards Bridge, then turns north to Smithville Bakery, and return by RR Avenue. This is what I do most often, both because of the bakery and I love both Hilliards Bridge and RR Avenue. This version has a 2nd 9-mile looo the South Jersey Regional Airport where there are bathrooms and water.

Lumberton 2LoopsAirport - 18/27 milesSometimes for a change I do this one which involves cycling through Medford Leas - very pretty. The water stop is at the SJ Regional Airport, better if people eat their own food - takes a long time to be served. The short 2nd loop uses RR Avenue, without going all the way to the bakery or using Hilliards Bridge

LumbertonWarnerRd - 22 miles I usually do Warner Rd as a C- Ride, but this version is short enough for Class D. Stop at Smithville Bakery.

2 ways to do "Two Loops from Vincentown"

VincentownLoopsApanay
Loop #1 -- stop at Apanay, then firelane VtownSimontown is the long 21-mile version of the first loop. Shorten it to 19 miles by turning right onto Ongs Hat at mile 4, skipping the Simontown/StocktonBridge extension.
Loop #2 - VTownNineMiles - There are many optiond for the second loop. This is my new favorite because Chairville is less known than some of the other roads.

Vincentown2LoopsBakery - In this version the 1st loop of about 20 miles goes to the Smithville Bakery, then the 2nd loop uses all of Hilliards Bridge (very nice) and a very nice section of Ridge Avenue - quite different from the section of Ridge which is used in the first part of the ride.

Medford start at St Peter's Tabernacle Twenty ( Never on Sunday, Church Parking Lot). . Only 19 miles! Stop at Conte's or Nixon's.

CLASS C-/D+ 11-13 mph 30 miles

Lumberton-Oxmead - goes to Warner Rd, but uses Oxmead up to Burrs Rd. some climbing.

Vtown - Mirror Lake - 32 miles - A favorite. It's 12 miles to the dam at the bottom of the lake, then 6 miles around the lake and on to the Burger King. Then 12 miles back. Skipping the lake makes a 24 mile ride, but that's skipping the prettiest part of the ride.

Vtown - Arney 3 Times - 26, 29, or 32 miles. This route puts you at the top of Arney's Mount at mile 8,5 where you are only 3.5 miles from Olde World Bakery. . After the first, and most difficult, climb up Arney's mount there are two optional 3-mile down-and-up trips for the 2nd and 3rd climbs. Riders who want a shorter ride can skip one or two of those and wait at the bakery.

Medford Start at St. Peter's Tabernacle Thirty - ( Never on Sunday, Church Parking Lot) One of many routes to Tabernacle.. Stop at Conte's or Nixon's.

 


Bad Weather? ROUTES THAT STAY CLOSE TO START
I don't announce these ride in advance. They are useful as substitutes when the weather is uncertain and it's good to stay within 30 minutes of the start location. They are flexible and can be used for either 20-mile CLASS D or 30-mile CMinus rides.

Vincentown ZigZag - Various lengths.

Lumberton ZigZag - coming soon.
