September 24th, 2011 Intro to the Pines Ride (NJ)

[brunkhorse]

I came across this thread over on JF and thought it might interest some people. It's going to be a bit of a drive for you Suffolk guys (prob 3 hours) but I figure it is a good way to learn the area from someone knowledgable and who's willing to show the spots and routes. I've been there with my brother a couple times but would like to get to know the area myself. Please note that this is more of just a tour thru the area and not a hardcore wheeling session. I figure I go on this tour and come back to play in all the spots he shows.

After alot of requests I have decided to put together a ride through the pines for those who are not very familiar with them, don't have snorkles and have paint that they care about. You could bring a brand new 2011 Escalade on this ride and not have to worry about scratches or wet carpets. We will stop at a few different landmarks throughout the ride and midday we will have a late lunch at the Green Bank Inn. We will start at the Atco Raceway around 11:00AM and the ride will end in the Lacey Township area. We will be in Wharton State Forest, Brendon Byrne State Forest, and Greenwood wildlife management area. Remember guys, this is for the beginner and or the guys who cares about his paint and interior. Those who are more experienced may find this ride boring, however are more than welcome to tag along. Also remember this is not just for Jeeps, I will be posting this on a few different forums. Depending on recent weather conditions some wet sand may splash up the sides of the vehicle, but any actual mudholes will be bypassable. This will be a kid freindly ride, I will have all 3 of mine with me ( 14 month old twins and a 3 year old)

Yes this is the whole purpose of the trip. The guy putting it together is a local from the area and he's.willing to educate us visitors on which spots are good.
