Break out the helmet, clip on the shoes and join like-minded freewheelers on two-wheeled excursions throughout South, and Central Jersey, Bucks County Pa, and wherever the road takes them.
Once the club schedules a ride, they list them according to riders’ abilities. Just starting out? Look for C and D rated rides – they usually have no major hills and if you are huffing and puffing, they’ll pull over and wait for you to catch up. Once you get into the B rides, you learn to ride in a pace line and you‘d better be prepared for a few hills. And once you hit the A group, well watch out. You’ll be tackling hills and know the ins and outs of a pace line.
Rides are planned by members and ride leaders make the call on whether to ride in inclement weather so call ahead to confirm.
But the Princeton Freewheelers aren’t only pedaling. They combine riding and socializing with group activities like picnics, road clean-ups and other activities.
