| High Bridge - Califon rail trail + roads loop 2009 | NJwandr | Nov 7th | United States > New Jersey > Califon | 14.8km | Recreational, Onroad, Rural, Scenic |
| Half of a 16-mile loop on mostly quiet roads around High Bridge + Califon in Hunterdon county - (also an 11-mile version). The other half is on the Columbia Trail (a dirt/gravel rail trail, very gentle). Much is near the South Branch of the Raritan River, including riding thru Ken Lockwood Gorge, perhaps the prettiest river section in New Jersey. For more details see www.roberts-1.com/b/x/nj - routeID [njwcrtr]. For the Columbia Trail, search on Bikely for [njwcolt]. One hill climb at northeast end of roads, which is avoidable. Map points were not tested for GPS navigation, but they seem to basically track the points I captured on my GPS that day. Not checked by me since 2009. | |||||

| Columbia Trail - Raritan River 2009 | NJwandr | Oct 28th | United States > New Jersey > Califon | 24.2km | Recreational, Basic, Offroad, Rural |
| rail trail that follows the south branch of the Raritan River in Hunterdon county + Morris county. Almost all dirt/gravel,which I found mostly easily ridable on the road bike with 700x23 tires I was on that day. Two sections on active public roads, about a mile near Long Valley, and north of Califon a section of less than half a mile. Map labels have detailed notes + warnings: click on Show, then select Cue Sheet. Some sections of trail can be combined with road sections to make a loop (instead of riding back the same way on the trail) -- for more detailed info + connections to easy on-road routes, see www.roberts-1.com/b/v/u/09a - routeID [njwcolt]. Path shown is mostly track points from my GPS riding it one day, though some had to be edited. Not checked by me since 2009. | |||||

Wanders thru various urban/suburban neighborhoods. (Placement of via points was tuned a bit for GPS.) This route last checked by me in 2008. | |||||
| Newark to Ft Lee GWB NYC 2008 | NJwandr | Oct 28th | United States > New Jersey > Newark | 44.9km | Recreational, Onroad, High traffic, Urban, Touring |
| from Newark NJ into New York City by human muscle power the whole way. This route map is intended to be used together with the more detailed description at www.roberts-1.com/b/u/nj/newarkgwb/ Most longer routes across New Jersey avoid riding this stage, and instead recommend taking the train between Newark and NYC. But the traffic interaction on this route is not worse than some other roads on tours across NJ -- and some it is more interesting (and some prettier) than many other NJ touring stages. (Placement of via points was tuned a bit for GPS.) [Last I checked this route was 2008] | |||||
