More Than 400 Ride By Moonlight In Lawrence, Hopewell Townships

LAWRENCE TOWNSHIP, NJ — More than 400 bicyclists turned out for the fourth annual Lawrence Hopewell Trail Full Moon Ride last weekend. The Mercer County Park Commission and the LHT co-sponsored the six-mile night ride through Mercer Meadows, which straddles Lawrence and Hopewell townships on Saturday, Sept. 9. The ride began at 9:30 p.m., just as the almost full harvest moon appeared over the horizon to light their way.
