Ride home from Clifton, NJ

Today I rode down to Clifton, NJ to pick up Mechel at school.  Trish had dropped him off in the morning with his new bike.

We rode about 27 miles.  Here’s the route:

…About 9 miles of it was a multi-use paved trail, so that was fun.

Here we are at mile 24 or so:

Mechel bonked at mile 19, probably because we didn’t eat before we left, which was dumb.  Thankfully we had some Clif bars with us, so once he ate he felt better.

We had a great time.  What a trooper!
