Fatty cross nj pics. (End to beginning)

Day 3. The last day of the journey.

I woke up to an fantastic free breakfast provided by the Comfort Inn.  At 8am, the temperature was about 24 degrees F, and was forecasted to reach 50 by 11am.  I took a late start at 10am and took my time because my ride home wasn't expected to arrive until later that day at 6pm. 

The ride itself was incredible will well maintained trails at the start.  I passed along the PA side of the Delaware which began literally right out back of the motel I was staying at.  As I rode along, it was a pleasure to say good morning to people as I rolled by on my fatty. 

The ground began to soften up as it got warmer, making my fat bike a great weapon of choice to float over all the mud and squishy soggy sand. I got pretty dirty as my miles tracked on. I stopped at many cool locks along the canal path.

I crossed back over the Delaware at George Washington's crossing state park. I took some photo opportunities with my steel bike at the blacksmith and with some cannons. It was cool to cross the narrow bridge across the Delaware River. 

I kept riding until I reached a town called lambertsville and had an awesome sandwich, while getting weird looks because of how muddy I was! 

I continued north, where it got much sloggier and yucky. I stopped again at Bulls Island state park to look over the suspension bridge. I stopped inside their offices and the nice lady gave me a list of campgrounds local to the trail that provide summer camping. 

I arrived in Frenchtown around 4pm and had some food with a few beers at a hotel bar while I awaited for my friends to come pick me up. Frenchtown is a small but nice town. The people were friendly and the beers were cheap. It was an overall great choice to travel north though I will certainly plan another trip to ride to Philly.
