Trans-sourland trail system

[rick81721]

Joined the sour land conservancy last year and receive regular newsletters. A recent article said they are working on a trans-sour land trail that would connect current systems. Anyone know more about it? I'm going to investigate further and try to get more involved in this aspect of their work

dont' tell them you have a mountain bike

This would be nice. I heard the land across from the east mountain rd lot is also owned by the county now. (is this the proposed velodrome site? they said GSA depot, which is farther north than the belle mead depot)

The pipeline can be ridden to lindberg - there are trails that connect mountain, and mountain church. Wonder what else they have going?

While it does look like no bikes, it could help thin the hiking herds at Sourlands
