Our group this year included Norm Jarosik, a researcher in the physics department, physics graduate students Arvind Murugan, Colin Parker, and Audrey Sederberg, electrical engineering graduate student YenTing Chiu, and me, Ed Groth.

The day was clear and cold. We had a headwind on the way out, but a tailwind on the way back.

This fall the weather has been strange: one cold week, but summer-like the rest of the time. Presumably, this is why only a few of the trees had turned by the time of the ride (you'll notice from the photos that most of the fall colors are green!).

	Colin, Audrey, and YenTing in the parking lot at Washington's Crossing State Park, getting ready for the ride to start.		Norm waiting for the ride to start.
	YenTing, Arvind, Colin, and Norm pedal along the path.		Colin, Audrey, and Norm taking a break near the wing dam just a bit south of Lambertville. Since there had been a lot of rain the few days previously (we had postponed the ride to the rain date), the river was quite high and running over the dam. Often we can walk out on the damn, but not this time!
	We took a break at Bulls Island, about 13 miles from the start of the ride. Here are YenTing and Arvind replenishing their energy stores.		YenTing, me, and Colin at Bulls Island.
	YenTing, Arvind, Audrey, and Colin on the footbridge connecting Bulls Island, New Jersey, and Lumberville, Pennsylvania. Way in the back is Norm. He had left us to ride up Federal Twist Road (a good workout!) and is just rejoining us. Behind Norm is NJ.		Upstream on the Delaware River from the footbridge.
	Downstream on the Delaware River from the footbridge.		All along the bridge are spider webs like this one. Pretty smart spiders: the wind blows mainly along the river, perpendicular to the bridge, and the spiders have put up their webs to catch whatever the wind blows through!
	Audrey, Arvind, and Colin at a "regrouping stop" along the trail.		We made it to the half way point: Frenchtown. Here's Arvind. I can't quite figure out what he's doing - taking off his helmet?
	YenTing and Audrey locking up the bikes, before going into a coffee shop for hot drinks and snacks.		Audrey and Colin are still locking up the bikes! Behind them is Bridge Street in Frenchtown and in the distance is the bridge to Uhlerstown, PA.
