First ride at Park

[Kilbo]

I have off work Wed. and Thursday so I was wondering if anyone else has time for a ride to show me around the trails. I'm available anytime during those 2 days if anyone is up for a ride. I've never been to Estell so Wed. I'll probably spend exploring the trails to get a lay of the land. Anyone have any advice for a noobie to the park, trail conditions, routes, bug issues 🙂 and whatever there is to look out for on the trails.

Hey Brian I am not available either day but by all means go ride. Park in the lot at Artesian Well Rd., which is a dirt road north of the main park entrance. Enter the trails there and explore, you will get turned around a few times but should be able to figure it pretty quickly.

I did about 3 hours of riding today. There are some nice flowing trails that are pretty much flat. The tight tree's in sections adds to the challenge if you increase the speed. I did lay a shoulder block on 1 of the tree's but I think the tree won that fight. 😀 I had an awesome ride and will definately go back again. ( Maybe tomorrow if my legs aren't to sore. 😉 ) The trails are a little overgrown in sections which made me wish I'd of worn pants and not my shorts. I also met up with another guy for the second half of my ride. Don't know if he's a member on here but if you are thanks for the company Dave and call me when you want to ride Ceres Park.

I didn't make it out today. I had the secure things down at my shore house in Cape May then got out of Dodge before everyone hit the panic button getting away from the coastline areas. Hope I still have a place to go back too next week. 🙁 Good luck with Irene everyone and stay safe.
