No but I did go to a deli that had about 20 or more sandwich options, and they all came with a chicken cutlet. Never saw that before, but it was good.

I just wanted to thank everyone again for the advice. I spent the past weekend driving around NY and NJ checking out most of the towns in this post. I was pleasantly surprised how much I liked most of the recommended places. The cool, overcast weather was also a nice change for me (back to 90...

Yes, good suggestion to post here. Nice rowdy crowd. Maybe we can connect at the MTB event in Sep.

That is definitely an option I'm considering. But, then I'll miss out on all that NJ has to offer.

Still here - just crazy busy. Can't scare me away yet, but some are trying to with the talk about ticks.

Thanks. I'm looking there as well, but thought I'd really get roasted by this group if I asked for advice on NY.

I only ride early in the morning while it's still foggy. I can't handle the sun anymore and I'm tired of my dermatologist cutting me up.

I will be there and may try to fit that in.

Good info, thanks. I'll keep that in mind.

Nah, but I'll buy you a beer sometime. I guess my point was that you pay another kind of tax living in those states. It just all depends what kind of tax you want to pay. All places have good and bad.

I'm an old downhill racer so naturally prefer going down technical trails over climbing anything. The trails around Santa Cruz are my local spot now. I'm willing to drive but would also love to have something close for those quick before- and after-work rides.

Anyone have a private helicopter they want to share? At no cost to me?
