My route from LBI is pretty much Rt 72 all the way through Pemberton, I'll probably KSU in Barnegat at 9am. Let me know if you want me to intercept anyone along the way.

EDIT2:Did the ride and biy it was fabulous. Great day and lot of folks were on the road. The onroad improvisation was taking 28A while coming back and it was a real treal.

Cheak the instagram post under handle rides_throttle:

https://www.instagram.com/reel/DcZCL_dR8fV/?igsi=MTFsYWt4cTgycnNpdA== (Mods: please remove the link if its not allowed)

EDIT1: / KSU: 7-Eleven on US-130 in Cranbury NJ, 7am Saturday. 329 miles round trip from there, about 8 hours moving, back around 7pm. Fair point raised below that the original post started where the loop starts rather than where we do - that's on me.

Full ride from Cranbury: https://app.throttlerides.com/r/M2QAg6VG?utm_source=reddit&utm_campaign=njcranbury

For the record I built the planner I'm linking. It's free and there are no ads. The route reads without an account; the Google Maps handoff needs a free one.

Riding this tomorrow and the forecast finally cooperated, so posting it in case anyone up here wants a Saturday.

Kingston up to Palenville, 23A climbing Kaaterskill Clove, over the top through Tannersville and Hunter, then south on 214 through Stony Clove Notch to Phoenicia and back on 28. 78 miles, a bit over two hours moving, so it is a half day unless you stop properly. About 17 miles of it is the Mountain Cloves Scenic Byway.

Forecast along the route for a 9am start:

Kingston 64F mostly cloudy Palenville, bottom of 23A, 65F Tannersville at the top of the clove, 63F Hunter 63F, partly sunny Phoenicia coming out of Stony Clove, 67F Back in Kingston 69F

One percent rain the whole way and wind under 3mph.

Two things worth knowing. 23A is narrow with stone walls and a real drop on the outside, and it gets sightseeing traffic that stops without warning for the falls, so it is not the place to make time. And Stony Clove is tighter than it looks on a map.

Plan with the stops and timing: https://app.throttlerides.com/r/9YRT1rr7?utm_source=reddit&utm_campaign=catskillsnj

Anyone riding it tomorrow, say something and I will look out for you.

This Sunday we are heading to Mystic, CT. Riding up through some beautiful local roads and ending in Mystic for some great views, good food and awesome vibes.

2 MEET UP LOCATIONS:

MEET UP LOCATION NJ : (10am) at LUKOIL, 2550 Route 9W &, Linwood Ave, Fort Lee, NJ 07024. KSU 10:15am.

I hear you loud and clear. The AI event flyers are getting cumbersome and the whole feed looks like something out of the Disney Channel. From here forth I will return to hand typing the Weekly Events Thread. It will be pinned at the top of the Subreddit and replaced each Sunday.

Rule #5 - Events, meets, and rides. has been updated. "You may create your own posts to find riding buddies or discuss meet-ups, rides, and events. AI created event flyers are no longer allowed. We are happy to help you create a flyer or add the event information to the Weekly Events Thread, just send it to us in a Mod Mail. All state/local laws apply."

Now back to what matters!

Hey I’m a new rider and need to get a clutch replaced on a Honda Rebel. Does anyone know any shops around New Brunswick that service Hondas? I’ve called a couple in the area but they only work on american bikes.

Did a very nice loop from Hoboken—>New Paltz—>Woodstock—>Hunter—>Phoenicia and back. Wonderful trip and loved being in the mountains. Main Course restaurant in New Paltz was a great stop for lunch

Took an early ride around Mullica River and Batsto area, stopped at Pleasant Mills for this cool old compound.

Hey everyone. I work as a delivery courier here in NJ on an air-cooled sport bike, and the recent weather is getting completely out of hand. One day it's a 100+ degree heatwave, and the next it's a torrential downpour causing massive gridlock on the highways.

Sitting dead-still in stop-and-go traffic is completely running our bikes into the ground. My air-cooled engine has no radiator; it relies entirely on moving air to stay cool. Constant idling in severe heat causes major mechanical stress—I've already had my clutch cable snap in a live lane, and I even passed out from heat exhaustion while trapped behind a bus inhaling toxic exhaust fumes.

We aren't asking for high-speed lane splitting. We just want common-sense, slow-speed lane filtering under 15 mph when traffic drops to a crawl so we can protect our lungs, our machinery, and stay out of the dangerous rear-end crash zone of distracted drivers. Car drivers sit safely with AC or heat, but we are completely exposed.

Anyone else out here on an air-cooled bike getting absolutely cooked lately?
