Fall Colors Ride IX

October 23, 2005

On October 23, 2005 we had a Fall Colors Ride IX on the path along the D&R canal next to the Delaware River. We went from Washington Crossing State Park to Lambertville to partway to Frenchtown and back. We had a lunch stop in Lambertville. The total was about 40 miles.

The ride was postponed from the original date (October 22) to the rain date. As it turned out, most people couldn't come (or were still worried about the rain), so there were only Yuan Liu - Sophie, a graduate student in the physics department, and me (Ed Groth)

The rest of the story is in the pictures below.

The view through the trees and across the river a little south of Lambertville. Sophie about half way between Bulls Island and Frenchtown. We decided to skip going all the way to Frenchtown and turn around here.

We had lunch in Lambertville but I didn't get a photo. Here's Sophie back in the parking lot at Washington's Crossing. Me at the end of the ride.
