This reduces the overhead of transporting bikes from Tabernacle while giving enough time to explore varied coastal terrain and neighboring towns.

Because the rental period follows a Sunday-to-Friday cadence, you can anchor your weeks around market days, surf conditions or scheduled local events. The three-week window is long enough to develop favorite routes while still leaving room for a day trip to Philadelphia or an inland escape when you crave a different pace.
