2021 is here are so are we! The Ride weekend is back and it’s June 19 & 20, 2021. We are planning to gather in New Paltz as a group we hope you’ll join us. We are paying close attention to the pandemic and the speed at which people are getting vaccinated and will take whatever precautions are necessary during the ride weekend to ensure the safety of our riders and volunteers. We will have our Virtual Rider option in case you are unable to join us in person so you can ride in your local community and join our Strava Group so that we can see where you’ve been riding and keep track of your mileage and elevation. All registered riders including virtual riders will receive our 2021 Ride for Mental Health jersey made by Hincapie Sportswear. You can set up your own personal donor page just like always to help you raise money for education, research and treatment of mental illness. There will be prizes for fundraising efforts as well as for riding accomplishments over the course of the event. Your efforts and participation are more important now than ever given the stresses created by the pandemic. We hope to see you in June! Click here for the registration page on BikeReg.

Cyclists, Runners and Hikers,

The Sourland Spectacular is back, celebrating its 10th consecutive year, returning to an in-person group event on September 11th andself-paced cycling, hiking and running September 12–19. So please save those dates. 

This year, the Conservancy will be offering our traditional event with some slight modifications to accommodate those riders who may not feel comfortable riding in large groups, promoting a full week of riding the routes and hiking our trails with rest stops and water stations still in place. 

The kickoff event on September 11th will feature both staggered starts and lunches. Pre-event coffee and breakfast will be followed by lunches served from 11:00 until 2:00. The lunch will, of course, be capped by our famous ice cream sundaes. You will have earned it! 

The $50 registration fee for the September 11th event includes lunch, swag and rest stops with snacks. Course markers and rest stops will remain in place through September 19th for riders who prefer to ride the course and hike or run the trails on their own. For those individuals we encourage you to donate to support our critical work promoting, preserving and protecting the Sourlands. 

There will be several new fundraising opportunities. Our website will include an invitation for you to solicit sponsorships for your ride or your hike. Riders who solicit $200 or more in sponsorships will receive a cycling jersey commemorating the event. Alternatively, you will be able to purchase jerseys for $85. We also will have a basket of Sourland goodies for the individual who raises the most sponsorship donations. 

We hope you will join us again this year – running, cycling, and hiking through the gorgeous forest and farmland of the historic Sourlands. 

Please visit our website www.sourlandspectacular.com for additional details. 

Proceeds from the event will help support our tremendous forest restoration effort, now underway. We hope to plant 10,000 trees and shrubs this year!

Thanks for your continuing support.

We look forward to seeing you on the 40th Covered Bridges Ride to be held on October 10, 2021.

This is THE premier cycling event in scenic Bucks County. Held each year on a beautiful Sunday with the gorgeous fall colors shouting out, the CBR, as our members call it, is our best event ever.

You have five great routes to choose from -- the family-friendly 20 and 33 mile routes (both use the towpath along the Delaware river, which is a fine-cinder and hardpacked dirt trail, for part of these routes), or the hillier 33, 55 or 65 mile rides (all on paved roads) -- plus plenty of great food. Travel through up to six historic covered bridges.

Fatter tired bikes work best on the cinder-based paths for the 20 and 33 mile routes, which visit one (20) or two (33) bridges. All rides conclude with a Grande Finale Picnic.

Rides start and end at Tinicum Park, along the shores of the Delaware River. Join 1,500+ riders from all over the northeastern United States who come to ride through some of the most beautiful areas in this part of the country.
