For the first official DOGS ride of the year, we did a 29.5 mile ride around Boonton, Mountain Lakes, Denville and Rockaway. The weather was in the 50's with some sun. Everyone stayed together and we had a great ride. Afterward, we hung out at our house, ordered some food from a local pizzeria and ate some delicious brownies that Ross and Victoria brought.
