These parks were judged based on fitness for biking and walking as well as scenary and safety.
> Manasquan Reservoir (*****): mostly flat and clear bike path, shaded, active but not crowded, 5.1 miles around, beautiful
> Mercer County Park: (*****): this matches Manasquan Reservoir in beauty, the 5 mile path is paved and flat
> Holmdel Park: (**** ): Wide open beautiful paved path for biking, a slightly steep hill & short path, about 1/4 mile, nice area for walking
> Monmouth Battleground State park (*** ): paved bike path, not crowded and in open space but only about 1/2 mile around
> Thompson Park: (*** ): A nice park, a little less scenic than others, good flat paved path but not a complete circle.
> Manalapan Recreation Center (*** ): this a relatively smooth unpaved path which is about 1 and ¾ miles around so I suggest a least a couple of times through, not crowded, can be a little isolated so go with someone else
> Shark River (* ): not a path suited to bikes, don't venture here alone or after heavy rain, better for walking 1.2-3 miles
