First Time Bike Tour Chairperson, George Steward, shared the following updates:  This year’s 12.5 mile route has been finalized. It will be a leisurely paced ride throughout Ewing Township neighborhoods.  The exact route will be available shortly, but just a quick heads up that we will revisit parts of our very first ride.  Our 2 rest stops this year will be Ewing Town Center (ETC) with a visit to “Hero’s Way” and Ewing’s Benjamin Temple House at Temple Park off Federal City Road. 

“I’ve learned one very important thing so far in my new role. It takes a lot of wonderful people to put this ride together. I want to thank the Township of Ewing, everyone on the EGT Bike Committee, the Ewing Green Team at-large, Ewing Campus Town and our rest stop hosts for their timely help and cooperation with this year’s early planning process.” 

The Ewing Green Team (www.ewinggreenteam.org) was established in 2009 by municipal resolution under the auspices of the Ewing Environmental Commission, and is part of the statewide Sustainable Jersey effort (www.sustainablejersey.com). The Ewing Green Team envisions a township that incorporates sustainability into the actions and decision-making processes of community members and municipal offices to create and maintain sustainable ways of living; builds strong and diverse economic opportunities; and cultivates a community that welcomes people from all walks of life.
