WELCOME TO THE NINTH ANNUAL FARMLAND RIDE!!!
In Memory of Mindy Engle Friedman, founder of the Farmland Ride
THIS YEAR - Don't miss our new 20-mile route! It packs the best of the Farmland experience into a shorter loop, featuring short rolling hills that offer just the right amount of challenge for a rewarding morning ride.
The Farmland Ride is a scenic ride through the rolling hills and picturesque farmland of Hunterdon County. Choose from FOUR great routes -- 1) a rolling 20-mile route with some short moderate hills, good for the conditioned rider, elevation: 803'; 2) a 30-mile moderately challenging hilly route suitable for intermediate riders, elevation: 1,483'; 3) a 45-mile moderately challenging hillier route with steeper grades for the intermediate to experienced rider, elevation: 2,412'; or 4) a 62-mile Metric Century route. Bike more miles through the stunning Sourlands and explore the charm of historic Frenchtown and Hopewell. This is our most challenging and hilliest route with steeper grades for the more experienced rider, elevation: 3,819'. Travel through the most scenic farmlands that Hunterdon County has to offer on paved roads. The rides offer plenty of snacks and conclude with an awesome lunch prepared by our local restaurant, Covered Bridge Italian Market. *(LUNCH IS NOT GUARANTEED WITH
