Beach Island State Park, NJ


Going to Beach Island State Park, NJ during the Thanksgiving Holiday to fly. I've been there many times before but not to buggy.

Do I go to the very end and park at the circle and then hike in? What is the terrain like at the end of the park? I have barrow tires on my favorite buggy, VTT Black Widow, and wide tires on my Flexifoil. The first buggy uses a 3/4" bolt and the Flexifoil 12mm, therefore it's not easy to quickly switch out wheels. I guess I'll probably be using the Flexifoil Buggy with the wide tires for that terrain?

So far three are going; "the more the merrier"

If you ever want to switch your tires on the BW out for the midi tires (6.5" wide) , the newer midi with 20mm bearings sold by peter lynn will fit on your buggy. Just move the 3/4" bearings over from your barrows to the midi since they use the same plastic rims.

I will be in the area this weekend as well.
May hit the beach with the buggy.

Winds don't seem ideal but I'll stop by just in case.

Aww...Man... Yeah, I can't make it down this weekend. Here is hoping for good weather.

Thanksgiving is great because I'll be at the In Laws in Princeton and so Beach Island State Park is only 45min. away vs the 2.5hrs. from my house NY.

Had I only started traction kites when I was in High School it would have been great! I grew up 2 houses away from the beach in Redondo Beach, California but alas in the early 80's the price and availability of such toys were hard to come by.
