What:
The Staten Island Bicycling Association
is happy to invite you to our annual, season

is a great ride to finish off your cycling season.
This year, as always, we will offer
rides of 25, 50, 62 and 100 miles. Each of
these scenic rides winds through the rolling
farmlands of central New Jersey during
the peak of the harvest season.

County Park in Jamesburg, NJ. To get to
the park, take Exit 8A off the NJ Turnpike.
Bear left after the toll plaza on to Rt. 32

on the right, just before the 2nd set of railroad
tracks. Suggested start time for the
100 mi. ride is 7 am, 62 mi.- 8 am, and all
others 9 am. Sign-in and registration

Sag & Support:
We take great pride in our club’s reputation
for hosting one of the friendliest and
best supported cycling events in the
North East. You are invited to enjoy a
pre-ride breakfast of bagels, muffins, fruit
and hot coffee or tea. After breakfast, you
can set out on one of the four scenic
routes. Each route is marked with distinct
pumpkin arrows and you’ll also
get one of our easy to read cue sheets to
guide you along the way. Sag support is
provided for each route should you have
mechanical problems and not be able to
finish. Stop, rest and munch at our fabulous
rest stops, stocked with fresh fruit,
nourishing treats, beverages and baked
goodies including pumpkin and apple pie.
Please note all rider sag support will
end at 5 pm.
