This is a lovely route that takes in two parks, an historical site and some beautiful homes. First take your time along Jones Rd. as you look at the houses & mansions. Then ride thru Overpeck Park (with very nice restroom facilities), but keep an eye out for interesting birds. On Euclid Ave in the town of Ridgefield Park you'll see a number of war memorials along the median strip. Suburban roads (with a couple of sharp hills) take you to Ted's North Deli to pick up lunch for your picnic in Van Saun Park (which also has nice restroom facilities near the picnic tables). As you exit the park, watch for animals from the zoo - buffalo have sometimes been spotted. More lovely suburban roads bring you thru Haworth and Tenafly to the climb up Churchill back to the bridge. Ride starts & ends at Dinosaur Playground.
