Hi!

So I've been lurking on here for an embarrassingly long time...

Name's Dan. I live in Queens but my parents are in close proximity to Allaire SP, and thus I'm there often. I'm a JORBA member but I've yet to make it to a TM... I'm sorry. If its any consolation I always try to pick up as much trash as I can fit in my bag, every ride. I ride mostly to be in nature and I work in the gardening and agriculture world. I also ride Cunningham Park in Queens and Stillwell Woods on Long Island, as well as Hartshorne and Huber on occasion; I'm ok going uphill, but I'm absolutely terrible going down.

So should you ever see a guy in Allaire on a black Monocog with state of the art rim brakes, please hold your laughter as I fail to clear even marginally tricky downhill sections.

P.S.,
last weekend I ran into an awesome couple on fat bikes at the top of a climb by the river in Allaire. Ed and Pat. I admired your bikes and you dug my single speed and JORBA sticker. If you guys are on here, look forward to seeing you again soon.

Welcome, from one Dan to another. 🙂

So, you ran into "Team Snot Rocket"! Oh, you may not know, it's a nickname they gave themselves. They usually ride a tandem mountain bike. Calling @giff06

Welcome to the best forum in the world.

Check out the rest of the trails in the Garden State-the best mtb state in the country.

I am going to try to up my game and pick up more stuff on today's ride. Thanks for the inspiration, Dan.
