Happy Hour

The best…er…most fun way to replace all those carbs, fluids and vitamins from the Saturday ride/race is by imbibing a liter (or two) of some fine german lagers (or if you’re like lance armstrong michelob ultra), chomp on a kraut covered bratwurst and relax on the outdoor picnic-table seating with Andrew C and your favorite training partners at the Zepplin Hall Beer Garden in Jersey City.   Never been?  We have you covered: http://www.zeppelinhall.com/location/.

Weekend Ride

Come out this weekend and build that aerobic base or work-off the friday night beer and pizza.  Saturday Morning at 7am Andrew C and Kristin will be leaving the 14th St Ferry in Hoboken.  Kristin will be leading the less aggressive paced group so take advantage!  Andrew C will also be leading a group run after the ride for those looking to do a good brick.

On Sunday Nicole will be leading the less aggressive ride up to the State Line (approx 38mi) leaving the 14th St Ferry in Hoboken at 7:30 AM.
