In 2022, I posted a fairly <a href=\"https:\/\/jus.tia.mybluehost.me\/website_3c1e0e40\/2022\/08\/south-jersey-ocean-drive-corridor-cycling-observations.html\"><strong>extensive guide of bicycling from the Wildwoods to Sea Isle City<\/strong><\/a>, via Seven Mile Island.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 2023, I went ever further north.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Previously, my northern-most cycling in Cape May County was to about 29nd Street, Sea Isle City, before turning around. One Tuesday in July, I was feeling good and even though I was pedaling into the wind, I kept going.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Strathmere<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/53134422336_95914bd69d_b.jpg?ssl=1\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Adjacent to Sea Isle City, the Strathmere bicycling experience is about the same. Bay Avenue has narrow bike lanes on either side. There is a stretch with sparse houses on the bayside and the dune on the beach side. As the density of homes increases, the side becomes a shoulder\/parking lanes. The experience is largely the same &#8211; a two lane road but without specific accommodations for cyclists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"background-color:#ffff00\"><strong>COMFORT RATING:<\/strong> 10 year-old with supervision<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Corson&#8217;s Inlet<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/53134422196_2a7dfce042_b.jpg?ssl=1\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the Corson&#8217;s Inlet drawbridge, the roadway narrows and there is no bike lane\/shoulder. As with other Ocean Drive corridor bridges, <a href=\"https:\/\/jus.tia.mybluehost.me\/website_3c1e0e40\/2009\/08\/no-toll-for-cyclists-on-ocean-drive-bridges.html\"><strong>cyclists are not charged a toll<\/strong><\/a>. This bridge isn&#8217;t as steep as some of others either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Shoulders return on the undeveloped island beyond the inlet. The southbound side is generally wider because it isn&#8217;t adjacent to the dunes and doesn&#8217;t have sand gathering on it. The speed limit is up to 45 MPH there too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Rush Chattin Bridge is a fixed span but strangely, the narrow paths on the other side of the bridge&#8217;s jersey barriers are blocked off from Ocean Drive. There is probably more to that story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"background-color:#ff6600\"><strong>COMFORT RATING:<\/strong> 12 year-old with supervision<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ocean City<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/53133823717_dfe22064d0_b.jpg?ssl=1\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once off the Chattin Bridge, Ocean Drive is again a two-lane 45 MPH road with shoulders for about 3\/4 mile. The road curves into 55th Street for several blocks. At West Street, the main route goes left to continue northward. A dedicated bike lane is provided in each direction of West Street. Approaching 34th street, a busy intersection with access to the mainland, the bike lane merges into a sharrows lane for several blocks. Southbound retains its bike lane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"background-color:#ffff00\"><strong>COMFORT RATING:<\/strong> 10 year-old with supervision<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/53133823562_aab71a9858_b.jpg?ssl=1\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Between 35th and 12th streets, Haven Ave, one block west of West Ave. has some dedicated off-street sections. I didn&#8217;t ride on it though.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/53134422081_7dd9b865b4_b.jpg?ssl=1\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At 23rd Street, the Ocean City Boardwalk begins, so I cut over to it. The Ocean City Boardwalk is an actual boardwalk too. Between 23rd and 14th, it&#8217;s just a boardwalk with dunes on the ocean side and beach houses and an occasional hotel on the street side. At 14th, it widens to a more &#8220;traditional&#8221; boardwalk and the custom seems to be for bicyclists to stick to the center. Most of the amusements are on the street side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At 5th Street, the boardwalk narrows again for the most part all the way up to St. James Place. All told, the boardwalk is about 2\u00bd miles long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"background-color:#66ff00\"><strong>COMFORT RATING:<\/strong> 7 year-old with supervision<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/53133823337_0df80513a1_b.jpg?ssl=1\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">St. James Place ends at Atlantic Ave. I probably turned right there and followed the road to Wesley Ave. That becomes Gardens Parkway which has service roads along it. At Newcastle Road, the service lanes end as the next block begins the bridge to Longport. That&#8217;s where I decided to turn around as the bridge looked longer and steeper than I wanted 23 miles into my ride. Perhaps another year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"background-color:#ffff00\"><strong>COMFORT RATING:<\/strong> 10 year-old with supervision<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Adding it up<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This was the first time I biked in Strathmere and Ocean City.
